When #Scotland will get 'very severe thunderstorms' during #UKHeatwave this weekend
The weather looks set to be scorching for most of us across the next few days, but there are concerns in some areas.

20 Jun 2025"The summer weather has finally arrived in June after a damp and dreary start to the month. Things are expected to heat up over the next few days and Brits will be basking in sunshine this weekend.
"Some parts of the UK are expected to have an official #heatwave, where they enjoy three consecutive days meeting or exceeding the temperature threshold for their area.
"But even with all this positivity, the Met Office has issued a worrying warning that things could turn ugly for some of us on Saturday evening, June 21. Far from enjoying all-round sunshine, parts of Scotland could be set for 'very #SevereThunderstorms'.
"Meteorologist Aidan McGivern made the prediction during his weekend weather update, where he said Scotland's southern regions could face 'large thunderstorms, frequent lightning, large #hail, heavy rain, and gusty winds' tomorrow.
"In a video posted on social media, Aidan spoke about the heatwave and the potential for some #ExtremeWeather. He said: 'This Saturday is the Summer Solstice; peak sun strength. But also, in eastern parts of the UK, peak heatwave, with fresher air arriving through the day from the west.'
" 'But as that fresher air collides with the plume of heat coming up from the south, we're likely to see some very severe thunderstorms in places.' "
