ÇWith record temperatures forecast to reach 40 degrees Celsius, officials have advised people to take precautions during the expected hot days.
A red alert, the highest heat warning issued by the Met Office, is mainly focused on London and central England, and the hot weather can lead to travel disruption, for example causing train cancellations and flights.
According to European meteorologists, the heat wave recorded in the Iberian Peninsula in recent days will affect northern Europe later this week and spread eastward, setting new records in several countries.
Apart from the United Kingdom, experts warn that parts of France, Germany and the Netherlands will experience temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius from the middle of next week.
Meanwhile, temperatures in parts of the central and eastern Mediterranean will rise by around 10°C above normal, and cross 40°C across Italy and the Balkans.
