Met Office explains why Friday's 33C sizzler might not be a proper heatwave

The UK is bracing for sizzling temperatures this week, with some areas predicted highs of a scorching 33C. The Met Office has confirmed that Friday will be a dry and sunny day for the majority of places - but said an official heatwave may not be on the cards.

While Manchester is forecast to hit its heatwave temperature threshold of 25C on Friday with highs of 27C, there are two slightly cooler days forecast beforehand, with highs of 21C and 22C, and a drop in temperature down to 18C on Saturday. That makes the likelihood of a three-day scorcher pretty slim.
Some southern areas might be in with a chance of reaching the heatwave threshold, however, as temperatures are set to rise to the high 20s earlier in the week before peaking on Friday. The Met
