caddymanBookies slash odds on the British summer hitting 100f....
William Hill have cut their odds against UK temperatures reaching 37.7C (100F) this summer from 16/1 to a record low of 14/1. This is despite the news that after a peak in temperatures early in the week weather forecasters predict a return to rain.
Even in the sweltering summer of 1976 the odds never dipped below 16/1, Graham Sharpe, Hill’s spokesman, said.
Yesterday the hottest place was deemed to be Barbourne in Worcestershire, at a little more than 30C. Today it is likely to reach the low 30s in many areas, especially the Midlands and Oxfordshire.
Turn me over, mother. This side's cooked.
