The 2021 Britain and Ireland heat wave was a period of unusually hot weather in July 2021 that led to record-breaking temperatures in the UK and Ireland.

On 19 July, the Met Office issued its first ever extreme heat warning for parts of the UK.[1][2] Temperatures soared across the United Kingdom over a weekend which saw all four nations record the hottest day of the year.[3][4] On 17 July, temperatures reached Шаблон:Convert in County Down, Northern Ireland.[5] On 18 July, temperatures reached Шаблон:Convert at Heathrow Airport, London and Шаблон:Convert in Cardiff, Wales.[6][7]

In the Republic of Ireland, Met Éireann issued its first ever Status Orange high temperature warning for six counties on 20 July,[8] after temperatures reached Шаблон:Convert in Athenry, County Galway on 17 July.[9]

On 21 July, temperatures reached Шаблон:Convert at Heathrow, London.[10] In Ireland, temperatures reached Шаблон:Convert at Mount Dillon, County Roscommon. In Northern Ireland a new record for maximum temperature was set, with Шаблон:Convert was reached at Castlederg, County Tyrone.[11]

Despite the extreme weather warning, the 2021 July heatwave was relatively mild in comparison to heatwaves in the UK and Ireland of previous and subsequent years, with heatwaves in previous years surpassing the maximum temperature of this heatwave, particularly in the south east.[12][13][14]
