A sunny day to come and a hot day with temperatures cranking up again, and expected to be the warmest day of the year so far, although a sea breeze picking up through this afternoon should help bring some relief to the heat.
28C, possibly warmer with UV ☀️Very High

Will you act now – decisively – to prevent genocide in Gaza and to ensure respect for international humanitarian law?
This Council must prevail. Demand this ends.
