40C summers in UK ‘a sign of things to come’, saysThe record-breaking UK heat experienced in 2022 will be regarded as a cool year by the end of this century, the Met Office said.

Its report shows that last year was "extraordinary", with a heatwave pushing the UK record over 40C for the first time.

Hot years like 2022 will be the average by 2060, if carbon emissions are as expected, the authors said.

By 2100, it would be a cooler-than-average year across the UK.
