🔥 Record heat hits Wales again! 🔥
Wales has just recorded its hottest May day ever—again! On Tuesday, temperatures soared to a blistering 32.9°C in Cardiff, topping yesterday’s record of 32.2°C in Flintshire. This breaks the previous high of 30.6°C set way back in 1944! 🎉
Crowds have been flocking to beaches and parks, making the most of this incredible weather. From Whitmore Bay to local parks, it’s been a sun-soaked Bank Holiday to remember. 🌞
Are you feeling the heatwave? The Met Office has officially declared it, with temperatures surpassing 25°C for three days straight. Other hot spots on Tuesday included 31.7°C in Usk and 31.0°C in Powys. 🌡️
While everyone’s loving the sun, health officials urge caution. It’s essential to look out for vulnerable friends, family, and neighbours. Stay hydrated and enjoy safely! 💧
Although these are record-breaking temperatures, they’re still shy of Wales’ all-time high of 37.1°C set in July 2022. As we revel in the heat, there might be some thunderstorms rolling in overnight, especially in mid Wales. ⛈️
Expect temperatures to ease slightly later in the week, but it’s likely to remain warm, especially in the south. Stay cool and keep enjoying this rare May heat! ☀️
