The UK is gearing up for an unprecedented heatwave, with temperatures expected to soar to 33C by Monday, prompting a rush to supermarkets for BBQ essentials and drinks. The Met Office has described the upcoming weather as 'exceptional', with southern England and the Midlands likely to experience the highest temperatures. Supermarkets are preparing for a significant increase in sales, with Aldi projecting over one million sausages and nearly one million burgers to be sold, alongside two million packs of beer. Meanwhile, M&S anticipates selling 350,000 cans of beer over the Bank Holiday weekend, equating to 150 cans every minute. In light of the favorable weather, many Brits are choosing to vacation within the UK, leading to a 50% increase in bookings at EasyHotel locations compared to last year. The AA estimates that 23 million car journeys will take place today, marking it as the busiest travel day of the weekend. Additionally, the combination of warm weather and the extended weekend could lead to a rise in sign-ups on affairs website Illicit Encounters, predicting a 'cheatwave' as people indulge in the sun.
