🔥☀️ Grab your sunnies and sunscreen, Wales, because summer is here in full swing! Yesterday we saw temperatures soar to a sizzling 27.5C, and it’s just the beginning. Get ready for an even toastier Bank Holiday Monday, with parts of Wales expected to reach a scorching 31C! Meanwhile, England has declared an official heatwave, with some areas nearing an unbelievable 35C – a rarity for May! 🌡️
Cardiff, Newport, and Abergavenny are bracing for the heat, while coastal spots like Pembroke enjoy a slight sea breeze. The Met Office is calling this weather “historic,” and with temperatures like these, it feels more like July than May! 🏖️
Thinking of hitting the beach or parks? You’re not alone! Thousands are making the most of this glorious weather. Just a heads up from South Wales Police: keep your little ones safe with a plan in busy places. A quick photo before you leave home, contact details in their pockets, and established meeting points can make all the difference. If you’re ever separated, remember to seek help from identifiable people or police officers. 👮♀️
Let’s enjoy this heatwave responsibly and stay hydrated! Remember to look after elderly relatives or neighbours who might struggle in these temperatures. Here’s to fun in the sun, Wales! 🌞🍦
