IS IT TOO HOT TO WALK MY DOG?
Dogs, just like people, can get heatstroke so you should walk them when it’s cooler, such as early in the morning or later at night.
Heatstroke can be fatal and occur in a matter of minutes, with tell-tale signs include collapsing, excessive panting and dribbling.
But sadly, often when they show symptoms the damage is already done.
MONDAY SET TO BE HOTTEST DAY OF THE YEAR
After strong signs of a heatwave this weekend, with temperatures rising to the mid 20s in some parts of England, Monday is set to be a scorching 28C in some areas of Britain, potentially rising to 30C in London.
It comes after high pressure makes its way from the Azores island in Portugal, settling across the Midlands and the southeast of England.
Atlantic influence is to be expected over the northern and western parts of England, bringing with it cloudier skies and patches of rain.
In June 2020, the highest recorded temperature for the month was a sizzling 32.6C recorded at London’s Heathrow Airport at 2.46pm.

UK WEATHER LATEST: HOW LONG WILL THE HEATWAVE LAST?
Britain has soaked the sunshine this month, with temperatures almostt reaching 26C.
But how long will this heatwave last?
England has been lucky to see some of the best weather of 2021 so far, and it doesn’t look like it is going to stop anytime soon.
A spokesperson for the Met Office told the Sun Online: “Temperatures are going to stay warm, locally very warm, throughout this week and into the next.
“A good deal of fine and dry weather across much of the UK for the end of June, although there could be a few showers in places and perhaps some rain in the far north at times.”
WHAT IS A HEATWAVE?
ACCOMPANIED by high humidity, a heatwave is a period of hot weather relative to the expected conditions of the area at that time of year.
A UK heatwave is met when a location records a period of at least three consecutive days with daily maximum temperatures meeting or exceeding the heatwave temperature threshold.
Heatwaves are most common in summer when high pressure develops across an area.
High pressure systems are slow moving and can persist over an area for a prolonged period of time, such as days or even weeks.

WEEKEND SET TO BRING MINI HEATWAVE ACROSS THE UK, FORECASTERS SAY
Britain could be on the brink of a mini-heatwave this weekend, with the mercury reaching the high 20s across most of the UK.
A spell of high pressure means most areas will meet the Met Office's definition of a heatwave - defined as three days above a particular temperature threshold.
The sun is set to stick around for the rest of the month, with only north-western parts due a little wind and rain towards the end of next week.
Met Office spokesman Oli Claydon told the PA news agency: "There's a definition of what a heatwave is - it is at least three consecutive days of maximum temperatures meeting or exceeding a temperature threshold.
"It is above 28C (82.4F) for London and large chunk of the south east, it is 27C (80.6F) for the Midlands and going towards the south west its 26C (78.8F). In Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Devon and Cornwall and the north east its 25C (77F) - so it is a sliding scale depending on where you are, but we haven't yet met that maximum threshold."
