UK heatwave grips the South as Atlantic rain spreads across the Northwest

Summer 2025 is officially the UK's warmest on record, and the split in the weather is stark: heat holds in the south while cloud and rain push into the northwest. High pressure and warm seas are keeping the south hot, while Atlantic fronts bring cooler, wetter spells to Scotland, Northern Ireland and parts of northwest England. The Met Office expects a more changeable pattern into September.
