00:00You just heard them say, is there one anywhere in the building?
00:03Yeah, hopefully.
00:03And that's for Laura playing something with her nose.
00:05Yes, well, tell us about the weather, Laura,
00:08because that's going to blow the roof off this week, isn't it?
00:11It's lovely for some, it's awful for others,
00:13but many people are saying, is it a heatwave?
00:15So I'm going to show you what you need for a heatwave to happen.
00:19We need certain temperatures to happen for three days in a row.
00:22It is 25 across the north, 28 degrees across the south east,
00:26so let me show you what's going to happen.
00:27And yesterday was 24.9, so we're not there yet.
00:31These are our top temperatures for the next few days,
00:32so it won't technically be a heatwave,
00:34but 29 tomorrow will be the warmest 1st of May we've ever recorded,
00:37and it could be 30, which would be the earliest we've ever seen 30.
00:40So we're looking at record-breaking temperatures.
00:43And we actually know that all of these temperatures
00:45are now made more likely by climate change,
00:47two to three times more likely because of climate change.
00:50We've just been talking about it in the news
00:51and actually a report today from an independent panel
00:54that look at how the government are dealing with climate change
00:56say they are not doing enough.
00:58So with regards to heatwaves,
00:59we're set to see more people dying because of heatwaves
01:02by the middle of the century, up to 10,000.
01:04We're set to see more homes at risk of flooding
01:06by the middle of the century, from 6.3 to 8 million.
01:10And the government have targets they're meant to reach,
01:1246 areas by this independent panel.
01:15Only three of them are being met.
01:18They have made no progress in the last two years,
01:20and they're basically saying that the country's at risk,
01:22we're all at risk, and not enough is being done.
01:24So while these temperatures are lovely for some,
01:26climate change has made them more likely,
01:28and we're set to see them happening more often.
01:31I think we're definitely at that point, Art,
01:33where people go outside and go,
01:34oh, it's lovely, but the next few days,
01:35the heat will just start to feel a little too much
01:37as we drag up this warm air from the near continent.
01:40Not just daytime temperatures climbing,
01:42night times as well.
01:43It's high pressure that sits over us
01:45that keeps the weather fronts at bay,
01:46so the outlook again, yet again,
01:48is dry, sunny and very warm.
01:50Still a little cloud across the far north and west,
01:52but more sunshine greets us today than yesterday,
01:56and it means once that cloud burns off,
01:57and it soon will,
01:59we are talking wall-to-wall sunshine today.
02:01Brilliant blue skies,
02:02and those temperatures will respond.
02:04All of us seeing temperatures way above average today,
02:0727 degrees our top temperature,
02:09and it yet again means that our UV levels are high,
02:12spreading all the way to the north of England today,
02:15and pollen levels remain very high as well.
02:17Tonight, we do it all over again.
02:19It is a warm, humid night,
02:21and tomorrow, like I said,
02:23the 1st of May,
02:24we could get 29, maybe 30 degrees.
02:27It'll be the warmest 1st of May we have ever recorded,
02:29so it's set to be record-breaking.
