UK weather: 'Fresher' conditions for much of country after hottest day of year so far
Much of the UK had cooler temperatures on Sunday with "fresher" conditions - apart from the South East - after thunderstorms swept through parts of the country overnight. A yellow thunderstorm warning issued by the Met Office lasted until 3am for areas including northern England and southeast Scotland. Some parts had up to 25mm of rainfall in one hour, the weather agency said. Berwick-upon-Tweed in Northumberland saw 31.1mm overnight and was among the locations that saw the wettest conditions. See the weather forecast in your area It comes after the UK had the hottest day of the year so far, with 33.2C (91.7F) recorded in Charlwood, Surrey, on Saturday. Scores of rail passengers were evacuated after some services were halted following a fault on a train. Some parts of the country have experienced a heatwave over the past few days but temperatures are now closer to average for the time of year. However, Met Office meteorologist Marco Petagna said temperatures could hit 27C or 28C in the South East on England on Sunday. He added: "Elsewhere, there's a fresher feel, quite breezy as well, so most places, high teens, low 20s for temperatures, and it stays quite showery tonight. "Even the South East could get a few showers coming in from the west, so a mixture really of clear spells and showers tonight. "It could turn a bit chilly in Scotland, down to 3 or 4 degrees in some rural spots, but for most places, temperatures, certainly towns and cities, generally holding up in double figures, but a fresher feel compared to what we've had recent nights." What's the forecast for Monday? The South East will see the most sunshine and highs of up to 25C on Monday, Mr Petagna said. In the other regions, temperatures will be around the high teens and low 20s, which is "near-average" for the time of year, he added. Conditions look "changeable" into next week, with "most areas" having rain at times, the forecaster said. "It does become very warm again in the South East around the middle of the week, so we could see high 20s again around Tuesday, Wednesday in the South East. "But at the same time as that heat builds again briefly in the south and South East, we could see further thundery downpours for a time as well," he said. What is a heatwave? An official heatwave is recorded when areas reach a certain temperature for three consecutive days, with thresholds varying from 25C to 28C in different parts of the UK.

Slightly cooler temperatures for the Denver metro area Sunday ahead of a cold front
Relief from the heat is on the way. A cold front arrives Sunday night into Monday, bringing temperatures down into the upper 70s and low 80s to start the work week. The drop in temperature may be the best way to start the work week! CBS Before the cold front arrives, however, temperatures will climb into the low 90s Sunday. There is a marginal chance for severe storms in the far southeast corner of the state. The rest of the state remains dry, and fire danger is high across the state, with a Red Flag Warning in effect in the high country and on the western slope until 10 p.m. Sunday.

Viral video shows Just Eat driver toss delivery into Thameslink during heatwave chaos
A video shared on social media shows a Just Eat driver making a difficult delivery by throwing items into a stranded Thameslink train from the ground below, during Saturday's disruption. The clip, posted on X, shows the driver standing at trackside level and accurately throwing several items through the open doors of a stationary Thameslink train positioned on raised track above. People can be seen waiting in the trains doorway ready to catch the items and other passengers watch from the railings. Cheers can be heard when a successful throw and catch is made. The incident took place during a major service failure on June 21, when a train fault between London Blackfriars and Herne Hill left multiple services immobilised in extreme heat. Around 1,800 passengers were eventually evacuated with assistance from emergency services. Temperatures reached 33C during the disruption, and many of the stranded carriages were without air conditioning. Someone ordered Just Eat to their broken down Thameslink train and managed to get it delivered 😭 — UB1UB2 West London (Southall) (@UB1UB2) June 22, 2025 Earlier that day, a spokesperson for Govia Thameslink Railway and Network Rail said: 'Earlier today, a fault on a train near Loughborough Junction brought all services to a halt in the area, three of them outside station platforms. 'Without power and air conditioning on such a hot day, we pulled all resources from across Sussex and Kent to get personnel on site to safely evacuate passengers as quickly as possible along the track. 'This would have been a difficult and uncomfortable experience for our passengers and we are truly sorry.' British Transport Police said officers were called just before 11am and assisted in the evacuation. London Fire Brigade confirmed it sent 25 firefighters to the scene to help passengers disembark. We have approached Just Eat for further comment.
