Amber heat health alerts have been issued across most of England as the country prepares for its fifth summer heatwave. The warnings, which indicate expected high to extreme temperatures, are scheduled to remain in effect until Friday evening. While the alerts cover nearly all regions, the north east of England is currently excluded from the measures.
In addition to the heat warnings, emergency services are managing ongoing environmental impacts. Firefighters in Hampshire are entering a third day of operations to contain a blaze in the New Forest. Forestry England reports that the fire is under control, though containment efforts are expected to continue.
