However, the observed record-breaking temperatures for the summer overall could not be fully explained by these conditions alone, and also needed to factor in additional warming from climate change.

New analysis of observations shows that extremes of temperature in the UK are most affected by human induced climate change. This means the UK is seeing, on average, more frequent periods of hot weather, bringing challenges for infrastructure, health and wellbeing. The observations also suggest
