\n The alert, issued by the UK Health Security Agency, runs from 9pm Thursday (June 12) to 8am Sunday (June 15)\u00a0and covering the east of England, East Midlands, London, and the south east.\n<\/p>\n

\n Oxford is set to hit 26\u00b0C on Friday (June 13)\u00a0while some\u00a0parts of the UK could be hotter than Ibiza, Mykonos, and even Los Angeles.\n<\/p>\n

\n Met Office forecaster Simon Partridge said: \u201cWe\u2019ve got a very warm, humid, spell of wet weather to come.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cIt\u2019s all because we\u2019ve got air moving in from the south, so the air is originating across Spain and Portugal and has been moving its way northwards.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cWe\u2019re going to see increasingly humid conditions with very warm days and some quite muggy nights as well and the general gist is that western parts of the UK are likely to see the majority of the rain and the thundery showers.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cBut, as we go into Friday, we could see some of that also moving across the east and south east as well for some thunder there for a time.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n Under the UK Health Security Agency and the Met Office\u2019s Weather-Health\u00a0alerting system, a yellow\u00a0alert\u00a0means there could be an increased use of healthcare services by vulnerable people.\n<\/p>\n

\n It may lead to an increase in risk to\u00a0health\u00a0for individuals aged over 65 or those with pre-existing\u00a0health\u00a0conditions, including respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The alert, issued by the UK Health Security Agency, runs from 9pm Thursday (June 12) to 8am Sunday…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":178507,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4316],"tags":[105,4348,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-178506","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-healthcare","8":"tag-health","9":"tag-healthcare","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114670672470869841","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=178506"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178506\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/178507"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=178506"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=178506"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=178506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
