A maximum of 33.7 C was recorded in Maidenhead on Saturday, believed to be the hottest June day since the Seventies.
Reading University meteorologist Dr Roger Brugge said the temperature was the highest recorded since Thursday, July 26 last year.
He added that it was ‘probably the warmest June day in the town since the fortnight-long heatwave that began in June 1976’.
Temperatures this week are set to be between the low teens and low twenties.
