Hour by hour weather forecast for Yorkshire as temperatures set to soar to 34C

Yorkshire heat warning: Hour by hour weather forecast in Leeds, York, Sheffield and Bradford as temperatures set to soar to 34C

The Met Office has issued an Amber Extreme Heat warning for parts of southern and eastern England, as well as the Midlands - here is an hour by hour weather forecast for Yorkshire.

Temperatures are likely to peak around 37C in some places across the country leading to an Amber Extreme Heat warning by Met Office.

Met Office chief forecaster, Chris Bulmer, said: “While the peak heat will be more short-lived than recent heatwaves, temperatures widely into the mid-30s Celsius on Thursday brings the potential for impacts for some, which is why a Met Office warning has been issued.

“High pressure is now becoming dominant and temperatures will build day-by-day. Southerly and southeasterly winds will also tap into the hot conditions over Europe which helps develop this further notable heat in what has been a hot and dry summer so far for many in the south of the UK.”

There are likely health impacts, as well as potential water safety incidents and travel disruption, as well as some heat sensitive systems that may also be disrupted, with potential power cuts in areas.

The main exception to the warm and sunny conditions this week will be north and northwest of Scotland, and at times parts of Northern Ireland, which will continue to see the influence of showery rain from the west at times.
