In the southern part of England, July 2026 was the driest month ever recorded, dating back to 1836, with just 1.9 mm of rainfall, or three percent of the average figure, the Met Office said. "July 2026 has been a truly remarkable month in the UK's climate record," said Met Office science manager Amy Doherty. (Photo by Isabel INFANTES and Toby Shepheard / AFP via Getty Images)
