Warmest spring on record in England and Wales
Monday 1st June, 2026
England and Wales just had their warmest spring since 1884, driven by an unusually early heatwave and much lower-than-average rainfall in parts of the south and east, prompting drought monitoring in the UK. This gives Lego a chance to talk about how play adapts in hot, dry weather — for example promoting outdoor-safe sets, cooling tips for families, and water-conscious play ideas in the UK.
