  average for March. The highest temperature was 24.5°C at Kew Gardens (Greater London) on the 30th. This was only the third day in March in UK climate station records where a temperature of 24°C has been reached in the UK.

• More than 2,700 excess deaths estimated in England and Wales during May and June heatwaves

  Climate change added between 3-4°C to maximum temperatures and is estimated to be responsible for about 42% of the deaths across both heatwaves

  and the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine used historical mortality records and established peer-reviewed methods to model fatalities during both heat spikes. As Scotland and Northern Ireland were not impacted by such extreme temperatures, they focused on England and Wales. Impact of climate change

• Extreme weather reveals changing climate

  A new report by the Met Office, published today, reveals further details about changes in the UK’s climate since the 1960s. The report reveals changes in extreme weather as measured by temperature and rainfall extremes.

  . Dr Mark McCarthy is the head of the Met Office’s National Climate Information Centre, the team which produced the report. He said: “Monthly, seasonal and annual climate data provide a valuable record of the changing climate in the UK. However, these average figures have a tendency to mask extreme

• New UK June maximum temperature record for second consecutive day

  The UK has provisionally set a new maximum temperature record for June for the second consecutive day, with 36.7°C reached at Merryfield, Somerset, on 25 June.

  temperature extremes are becoming increasingly common in the UK as a result of human-induced climate change. There's a chance of this record being challenged again as the warmth moves more markedly east on Friday, before a gradual easing in temperatures through the weekend." Temperatures have reached 36.7
