ACCU WEATHER REPORTS:

A new all-time record high was set in the United Kingdom Tuesday, and temperatures were forecast to soar higher as the day went on as an epic heat wave continued to roast much of Europe.

The U.K. Met office said Tuesday that the highest temperature ever recorded in the U.K. was observed in the English capital. London’s Heathrow Airport reported a temperature of 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40.2 Celcius) shortly before 1 p.m. local time Tuesday. Temperatures in London typically climb to around 70 F (21 C) during the middle of July.

Not only was the reading of 104 F (40.2 C) a new all-time record in the U.K., but officials said it was also the first time in recorded history that the country had eclipsed 40 degrees Celcius.
