Amber Heat Alert Hits Southwest | UK News

UK Health Security Agency has issued an amber heat health alert for the southwest of England from Tuesday to Friday, warning of extreme temperatures and strain on healthcare services. Heat will peak Thursday/Friday with temps hitting 30°C inland and up to 34°C in Jersey, Channel Islands. This follows a July drought and South West Water’s hosepipe ban (effective Aug 8) due to critically low rainfall and high water usage. Humidity will make conditions feel even worse, especially at night. Residents in Devon, Cornwall, Dorset, Somerset, and Isles of Scilly must conserve water under the ban — stay cool and watch the forecast.
