Amber heat health alerts have been issued for parts of England as temperatures are set to climb to more than 30C.

They will be in force from 12:00 BST on Friday until 18:00 BST on Tuesday, with the warmest weather expected on Sunday and Monday.

The amber alerts will be in place for five regions – East Midlands, South East, South West, East and London – while less serious yellow heat health alerts will be in force for two areas, Yorkshire and Humber and the West Midlands.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) warns that the hot weather is likely to bring increased pressures on health and social care services.

The new heat health alerts come as a second heatwave of 2025 is expected in parts of the UK.

Hot weather will last into the first part of next week, becoming increasingly intense with the possibility of recording the highest temperature of the year so far.

It follows the first heatwave of the year that saw the hottest day of 2025 recorded – 33.2C in Charlwood, Surrey on 21 June.
