Heatwave scorches Europe as UK braces for record-breaking day | Follow live updates
From CNN's Sharon Braithwaite and Zahid Mahmood in LondonThe UK will face searing temperatures on Tuesday that could topple all-time records for extreme heat, a day after parts of the country experienced their hottest night recorded.
Tuesday is"expected to be even hotter," the Met Office's CEO, Penelope Endersby, told the BBC, adding that there was a higher chance of reaching 40C. A woman cools off in front of a large fan in Kings Cross tube station during the heatwave in London, England, on July 19. "If people have vulnerable relatives or neighbours, now is the time to make sure they're putting suitable measures in place to be able to cope with the heat because if the forecast is as we think it will be in the red warning area, then people's lives are at risk," Met Office spokesman Grahame Madge said.
