All the parts of England set for '41C heatwave' with five counties breaking record
Large parts of the country have just come out of the second heatwave of the summer - but another could be on the horizon in a matter of weeks. Weather maps from WX Charts have turned black for the middle part of July where the temperature has been forecast to reach a whopping 41C in parts of England - which would be record-breaking. According to that level of heat could be experienced in Norfolk which has been forecast to experience 41C on Tuesday, July 15.

That currently stands at 40.3C which was reached in Coningsby, Lincolnshire, on July 19, 2022. According to WX Charts, the previous four days (July 11, 12, 13 and 14) could also see temperatures reach the heatwave threshold, meaning we could have another heatwave in the middle of July. The mercury has also been forecasted to reach 40C on Monday, July 14, in West Sussex and East Sussex, while Sunday, July 13, could se highs of 35C. It's worth noting that these forecasts could subject to change, given July 15 is just under two weeks away. With the arrival of hot weather, the UK Health Security Agency also publishes heat-health alerts for different regions. The West Midlands was under an 'amber' alert earlier this week but with the weather cooling down after the most recent heatwave, alerts across England have been lifted at present. In its long-range weather forecast from July 6 to July 15, the Met Office said: "Cloud and rain associated with an Atlantic frontal system and area of low pressure is likely to sweep south and east, with rain always most persistent on western hills, especially western Scotland where large rainfall totals may have built up by this time. "Eastern areas in shelter could see warm and humid brighter breaks, but with a risk of thundery showers, which could be slow moving at first. "Likely turning cooler and more showery into next week, followed by a changeable pattern with further areas of cloud and rain and brighter, more settled spells in-between. "Temperatures are likely to be around average overall, with an increasing chance of warmth in the south as the period progresses." However in the period from July 16 to 30, the Met Office added: "Temperatures are likely to be above average, with the greatest chance of very warm or hot spells in the south or southeast."

Huge Setback for Trump With Alligator Alcatraz Already Flooding
Florida's much-hyped ICE detention center cannot even keep the rain out. Videos from the so-called Alligator Alcatraz, which President Donald Trump visited on Tuesday to mark its opening, show that the center had standing water on its first day of operation. Florida officials claim the facility, situated in the middle of the muggy, naturally flooded Everglades, is sturdy enough to withstand winds of a Category 2 hurricane, despite its exterior being a tent. Those claims are sure to be scrutinized after a local news reporter, Jason Delgado of Spectrum News 13, captured footage of water seeping into the tent, onto electrical cables, and around flagpoles. There was no hurricane or severe thunderstorm brewing outside—just typical summer showers that much of the state experiences daily this time of year. RainDrop's website estimated that about a quarter of an inch of rain fell on Tuesday at the city of Ochopee, which is closest to the tent. The rain could be heard clearly in Delgado's videos, and the ceiling appeared to rattle with each drop that struck it. The Florida Division of Emergency Management told Spectrum that it has taken steps to address the flooding that was experienced on Tuesday. 'Overnight, the vendors went back and tightened any seams at the base of the structures that allowed water intrusion during the heavy storm, which was minimal,' said the spokeswoman, Stephanie Hartman. The facility, which bizarrely has its own merch sold by Florida Republicans, has been slammed as 'dehumanizing' and not safe for detainees. Migrants are expected only to be housed temporarily at the site before being removed from the country, says Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, who has been described as the architect of Trump's migrant crackdown, scoffed at suggestions that the massive tent is dehumanizing. Despite it being filled with bunk beds that are separated by internal fences, in the middle of a literal swamp, he said it is not at all overkill for people who entered the United States illegally in search of a better life. 'What's 'dehumanizing' is when American citizens are stripped of their rights and their liberties by the invasion of illegal aliens,' he told Fox News on Tuesday. 'What's 'dehumanizing' is when Democrats let illegal alien rapists into the country to attack our children. That is 'dehumanizing.''

Las Vegas hit with dust and thunderstorms caught on video
A streak of wild weather has recently swept through the Las Vegas area. Wind and dust storms blew through the Las Vegas Valley with gusts of over 60 mph on July 1, according to the National Weather Service. Video captured by resident Rick Carrillo shows the lack of visibility brought on by the storms. Nearly 2,000 people remain without power in Clark County – the home of the Strip in Paradise and the city of Las Vegas – as of 2:16 p.m. PT July 2, according to USA TODAY's Power Outage Tracker. The county has opened all cooling centers and has set up an emergency shelter at the South Hall of the convention center. The NWS issued severe thunderstorm warnings for parts of the valley Tuesday, even though there "little-to-no" lightning activity from the storms, later clarifying in a post on X that they chose that designation to communicate the nature of the danger posed by the storms. "Simply put, a Severe Thunderstorm Warning was the best tool in our tool box to use to message the sudden, isolated, very strong impacts to our Valley," the Las Vegas office wrote. Accuweather forecasts that the storms will linger around Las Vegas through Wednesday, July 3 with normal weather returning by the Fourth of July. The forecaster predicted a high of 93 degrees with showers and localized damaging wind gusts for July 2, a 10 degree drop from the city's average of 103 degrees. The forecast for June 3 sees temperatures pass the 100-degree mark with a high of 101 degrees but a 0% chance of precipitation.
