\n The warning is in place from 3pm on Wednesday until 8pm on Monday, June 22.\n<\/p>\n

\n It also warns of a greater risk to life of vulnerable people, increased potential for indoor environments to become very warm and water\u2011related incidents may increase, including risks from cold\u2011water shock and drowning.\n<\/p>\n
\n The risk score is currently at seven, the lowest of the ratings to trigger a warning.\n<\/p>\n
\n However, this can change with forecasts.\n<\/p>\n
\n Met Office meteorologist Honor Criswick said high pressure building across the country will bring warm and humid conditions, with temperatures climbing above the seasonal average in some areas.\n<\/p>\n
\n Temperatures are set to creep up towards the 30C, with the mercury peaking on Friday.\n<\/p>\n

\n Diss in south Norfolk will hit the 30C mark on Friday, while Downham Market will reach 28C and Thetford 29C.\n<\/p>\n
\n Great Yarmouth will also peak at around 28C on the Friday, while Norwich will hit 29C.\n<\/p>\n
\n Elsewhere, Sheringham is expected to reach 28C and Attleborough 29C.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cThroughout the week things are heating up in the south and South East,” she said.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cWe\u2019ve got high pressure starting to build and there\u2019s a warm plume moving up through continental Europe.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cWhether or not it\u2019ll be a heatwave remains to be seen as there\u2019s still a lot to play for, but things are certainly turning a lot warmer, if not maybe even hot, by the end of the week, although this is mostly confined to the South East.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cOther areas will warm up, but it\u2019s also very humid so they are likely to be cloudy, with rain and showers.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The warning is in place from 3pm on Wednesday until 8pm on Monday, June 22.
