High pressure building across the UK could lead to temperatures of 35C (95F) - and the heatwave is expected to peak on Friday or Saturday.

Neil Fenwick, area manager for Essex County Fire and Rescue Service, said:"While summer weather usually provides the perfect opportunity to host a barbecue or gather around a chiminea in the evening, we're strongly discouraging people from having any kinds of fires at the moment."

Met Office meteorologist Tom Morgan said:"It does look like a prolonged period of dry weather and obviously that's bad news for southern England where some rain would really be useful now." Mr Morgan says heatwave criteria are likely to be met across the UK - potentially putting strain on the NHS as the most vulnerable suffer heat-related problems.

So, three days of 30 degree summer? Awesome. No doubt you'll claim that a polar bear will starve because of the summer 'weather'. Or something 🙄

Lovely, Summer days ahead 🥳

Time to get hose pipes out boys.

Summer has been rebranded as emergency climate season.

Love it. Finally a proper summer.

I'm hoping the burgers got hotter than 40.3⁰c could cause food poisoning...

Great news, it usually rains non stop during the school holidays.

Here comes the summer

Not good news for many.

🍹 🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹🍹

Oh right, I'll stick to my SnowBQ then.

We will have ours in November then 👍

Roll on the snow please!!!!!!!😞

Another day of NO NEWS. Journalists are struggling.

No, we’ll shove a few beetles in the oven👍

Our last one was 6 hours, barely had time for a bbq

I’ve had hundreds of bbqs and have never burnt anything down.

Wondering why you all don't just scroll on by seeing as sky news offends you all so much 🤔

ffs shut up.... a week of summer get real

Lovely ☀️☀️

So 3 days of hot weather then ?

FFS and let’s not build snowmen when it snows. Nanny state 🤬🤷🏼‍♀️🙈

It’s called summer 🙄

I shall be firing up the bbq on a regular basis.

LOL

BBQs overated and usually undercooked

2 days then ?

How many going to die this time?

Who’s doing the urging? Is it the Government or the Goverment paid MSM? Which would mean that it’s the publics money! Please stop lecturing us, it isn’t working 🙄

Not long before the South starts taking the water from the North…..again 🙄 Are there no reservoirs in the South of England, or do they only NEED the North when it suits them?

so we might get 3 days of sun up north🥳😁

Lol and when else would people have a bbq if not in hot weather? Can’t do bbq in crappy temperatures below 20C which is normally the case. Let everyone enjoy summer

If I want a bbq I’ll have a fckiung bbq . Control freaks

July's heatwave was 2 days long.

Chicken prices gonna fall

So 3 days instead of 2 then

So we can grill

Just think: not so much that a person thought *cooking in hot weather* is a concern worthy of an “urgent” PSA (don’t miss the “red-shaded” map for extra effect!) But that no one else called them out on the ridiculousness, and instead ran with it. Tells us a lot.

They'll be asking us to grass on our neighbours if they have a bbq next 🙄

Erm no.

I wasn't going to, but now I am.

Another few days of warm weather in summer hardly a shocker

Last time I went a BBQ it was food, no fireworks or Chinese lanterns, just food and drink, not sure fireworks are standard at your BBQ’s

BBQ it up. Why heat the inside of your house when you can cook it up on the grill. Pork ribs anyone? 😋
