The hottest temperature of the year was recorded on Sunday in all nations in the United Kingdom, with 31.6C being measured at Heathrow.

As reported by the Mirror, a Met Office spokesperson said: "We are expecting temperatures to continue on the high side right through until Thursday, although the day-to-day detail will change and there is a tendency for the highest maximum temperatures to migrate west.

"So, we are expecting Monday and Tuesday for the maximum temperatures to be in the South West and in South Wales, and then later in the week temperatures climbing across Northern Ireland and the North West."
