Britain's hottest summer for second year

Britain experienced its hottest summer on record for the second consecutive year, with average temperatures rising to 16.5°C between June and August, surpassing the previous record in 2025. The Meteorological Office confirmed that climate change caused by human activity has made such hot summers approximately 130 times more likely, with repeated heatwaves and droughts leading to decreased rainfall and about three-quarters of England and Wales suffering from drought. The heatwaves resulted in approximately 2,877 deaths in England, along with warnings that infrastructure and residential areas are not built to withstand further rises in temperatures, and it is anticipated that the severity of future summers will continue to increase.
