Watch the heat when escaping Britains wet weather

Torrential rain has brought floods to many parts of England and Wales in the last 10 days of June - but travellers flying to Greece are warned that Greece is suffering the worst heatwave in over 110 years. The severe heatwave covers several areas of the mediterranean including Turkey, Italy, Croatia, Bosnia and Romania. Fires have burned out of control of the greek island or Poros and several parts of Greece have had powercuts due to air-conditioning units being set to full blast draining the country's electricity supplies. For UK travellers going to the above areas, we'd advise extreme caution as temperatures have reached 46C and to drink plenty, stay out of the sun and take extreme care of young children.
