England experiences warmest June on record: Met Office
Representative image LONDON: England last month experienced its warmest June since records began in 1884, while the UK recorded its second-warmest June over the same period, the meteorological office said on Tuesday. The announcement of the provisional figures also coincided with Britain recording its hottest day of the year so far, as much of Europe swelters from an early summer heatwave. The mercury hit 33.6 degrees Celcius Tuesday in southeast England, topping the previous hottest day on June 21. The Met Office said England saw a record mean temperature of 16.9 degrees Celcius (62 degrees Fahrenheit) for June. The UK's mean temperature last month was only surpassed in June 2023, it added. Last month had two heatwaves in parts of England and Wales, which recorded its third warmest June. It followed the UK -- otherwise known for its damp and cool weather -- also experiencing its warmest and sunniest spring in over a century in 2025. "Past studies have shown it is virtually certain that human influence has increased the occurrence and intensity of extreme heat events such as this," Met Office climate scientist Amy Doherty said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo On June 30, temperatures soared above 32 degrees Celcius, with Wimbledon recording its hottest ever opening day and implementing a heat rule to protect players' health. Amber heat alerts -- which warn of a risk to vulnerable people and pressure on the health service -- were in place across parts of England. The UK also saw higher than average sunshine across all four of its nations in June, according to the latest figures. A Met Office study last month said the country could experience more extreme and prolonged heat due to human-driven climate change. Around the world, scientists say the increase in greenhouse gas emissions as a result of burning fossil fuels is driving freak weather events. aks/jj/tw

Karnataka monsoon: June sees 8% more rainfall; south interior districts register huge shortfall
The crucial southwest monsoon, which arrived earlier than usual this year, saw 8% surplus rainfall in Karnataka as a whole in June. However, some districts, especially those under the south-interior Karnataka (SIK) meteorological division, witnessed huge shortfalls, according to data from the India Meteorological Department (IMD), Bengaluru. Most surplus Belagavi district in the north-interior Karnataka (NIK) meteorological subdivision received the most surplus rainfall with a 98% departure from normal, while on the other end of the spectrum was Bengaluru South district (formerly Ramanagara), with a -74% departure from normal. Among the districts under the SIK, Ballari, Chikkamagaluru, Chitradurga, Davangere, Kodagu, and Vijayanagara received excess rainfall. On the other hand, Bengaluru Urban and Rural, Chamarajanagar, Chickballapur, Hassan, Kolar, Mandya, Mysuru, Shivamogga, and Tumakuru recorded deficient rainfall, apart from Bengaluru South. All the districts under the coastal Karnataka subdivision — Dakshina Kannada, Uttara Kannada, and Udupi — received good rainfall in June. In NIK, apart from Belagavi, Dharwad saw excess rainfall, with a 46% departure from normal. Yadgir had the largest deficiency in this subdivision, with -45% departure from normal. Subdivision-wise, though, all three recorded normal to surplus rainfall: Coastal Karnataka had an 8% departure from normal, NIK 17%, and SIK 3%. Overall normal C.S. Patil, scientist and director, IMD Bengaluru, said, 'The south-interior Karnataka districts have received less rainfall, but overall the rainfall is normal for June. The western districts have received good rainfall, especially the hilly and coastal districts.' In line with the forecast for July for India, Mr. Patil said the rainfall was expected to increase overall for the State this month. The IMD has forecast that monsoon rainfall in July will be 'above normal,' while June-September will also be 6% above normal. Absence of El Nino Mrutunjay Mohapatra, Director-General, IMD, had said on Monday that the strong rainfall expected ahead is largely due to the absence of an El Nino pattern. The IMD had also said that the monsoon rainfall in June for India has been 8.9% more than usual, and except for eastern and northeastern India, most regions have seen surplus rains. South India, though, recorded a shortfall of about 3%.
