THE UK is set for a scorcher TODAY as temperatures soar to highs of 34C, but Brits may wave goodbye to the glorious weather sooner than expected.
The Met Office have confirmed that London could see highs of 34C today whilst Venice will only reach 28C.
However, as quickly as temperatures rocket hotter than the Sahara desert, it is forecast to plummet right back down on Sunday as the UK is battered with rain.
The Met Office issued a Level 3 Heatwave Action amid the scorching heatwave, urging Brits to be very careful in the blazing sun.
Advisors from The Met Office say: “Look out for others, especially older people, young children and babies and those with underlying health conditions.
“Close curtains on rooms that face the sun to keep indoor spaces cooler and remember it may be cooler outdoors than indoors.
“Drink plenty of fluids and avoid excess alcohol, dress appropriately for the weather and slow down when it is hot.”
Sunday brings gloomy highs of 18C with lashing of rain across the British Isles.
Rainfall is likely to hit overnight in the north, and early morning for the south, with sporadic showers dotted across the UK.
