Ireland
bracing for the hottest day in recorded history
It's
so hot in Ireland right now that you can no longer place bets on the
weather.
As
Ireland continued to sizzle in the heatwave yesterday on what was the
hottest day of the year to date, bookies suspended betting on the
131-year-old record being broken for the highest temperature ever
recorded in Ireland.
Mercury
levels hit their highest ever point on June 26, 1887, when
temperatures soared to 92F (33.3 C) within the grounds of Kilkenny
Castle.
BREAKING: Glasgow and Renfrewshire have their hottest day on record with a high of 31.8C! This well exceeds the previous record set at Glasgow Weather Centre back in 1975, & Bishopton record of 28.6C in 2014. This is an extraordinary hot spell for June! #ScotScorchio 
Meteorologists
have confirmed that Glasgow has had its warmest ever day as the
temperature in the city topped 31.9C.
The
city beat Wednesday’s high of 31.3C (88.3F) in Aviemore in the
Highlands, and came close to matching the hottest June day ever
recorded in Scotland - 32.2C (89.9F) at Ochtertyre in Perth and
Kinross in 1893.
At
31C (87.8F), Strathallan in Perthshire enjoyed the second highest
temperature on Thursday, followed by Tyndrum which saw the mercury
hit 30.7C (87.2F) The Met Office said Thursday saw Glasgow beat a
previous high of 31.1C (87.9F) recorded in 1950.
