[00:00:18]Yeah, I'm not good.

[00:00:20]It's not a hobby.

[00:00:35]What's that I'm going to learn in the whole night and I'm not yet?

I'm going to go over >> What's particularly notable about the the heat records we've seen in recent days is how much we've beaten the record by. So, the previous record of 32.8° C was was really eclipsed by the the 35.1 that we've reported previously reported at at Kew Gardens.

[00:02:30]And normally with with these warm temperature extremes, you're looking at beating temperature records by fractions of a degree, but this is more than 2° higher than the previous record, which is really notable in terms of in terms of the UK climate record. These temperatures are really unusual. Not only uh in general, these would be unusually high temperatures for any time of year, but for for this early in the year before summer has really started, they're really extreme. We've seen temperature records broken um by really big margins. Actually, I think in some regions June temperature records have been broken, and it's still only May.

[00:03:05]And some of those records have been broken by as much as 2°, which is absolutely massive. Heat waves are always driven by circulation patterns.

[00:03:12]So, uh in this case, we've got what's called a a blocking high. So, there's high pressure, and it's sitting in one place, and that's that's causing these prolonged high temperatures. But obviously, we know that underlying that, we have this constant warming effect from from climate change that is driven by human activity, by by human emissions of fossil fuels and greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

[00:03:33]So, we know that heat waves are one of the most dangerous types of extreme weather. The dangers are not always so obvious as they are with floods or wildfires, but actually, far more people die of uh heat stress in because of heat waves um than do in floods or wildfires typically.

[00:03:54]Come on, come car.

[00:03:55]That's my son.
