Source BBC:
People have been told to watch out for sunburn and heat exhaustion after the Met Office issued two new-style extreme heat weather warnings.
With the hot weather set to last until Friday, here's what you need to know about its effects on the body.
What does extreme heat do to our bodies?
As the body gets hotter, blood vessels open up. This leads to lower blood pressure and makes the heart work harder to push the blood around the body.
This can cause mild symptoms such as an itchy heat rash or swollen feet as blood vessels become leaky.
At the same time, sweating leads to the loss of fluids and salt and, crucially, the balance between them in the body changes.
This, combined with the lowered blood pressure, can lead to heat exhaustion. Symptoms include:
dizziness
nausea
fainting
confusion
muscle cramps
headaches
heavy sweating
tiredness
If blood pressure drops too far, the risk of heart attacks rises.

Re: CoronaVirus Latest
Yet more overbearing scaremongering, last year we had temperatures in excess of 35 degrees on certain days, throughout my life there have been record temperatures set during hot summers, why is it only this year where they suddenly feel the need to issue amber alerts..... Is it an example of social engineering, dumb down the populace more and more, you need us to tell you that it's too hot and you need to be more careful.
This really grinds my shit, if adults humans can't be responsible for themselves and their families and take the common sense precautions then we are truly and royally fucked as a species
Yes it is hot, 40 years ago my parents taught me to drink more, put on sun tan lotion, wear sunglasses, cover my head etc when it was hot, funnily enough I've managed to teach my kids the same

I remember as a kid when we lived in london above the pub that my parents ran, there was a flat roof and the tar on it literally melted it was that hot.
I remember going over for the cup final in 98 on the chance I would get a ticket, and again it was that hot that the tar melted and somehow it got on my home jersey and ruined it
These days are mild in comparison to those days imo

The only thing I've ever choked on in my entire life was a pea when eating my Christmas Dinner, aged 14.
