Pebbleshire News, Thousands brave the heat to watch summer solstice sunrise at Stonehenge
Thousands of people watched the sunrise over Stonehenge to celebrate the summer solstice, signifying the end of spring.
Those who gathered for the spectacle on Saturday at the neolithic monument in Wiltshire braved a warm start to the morning as they marked the year’s longest day.
Temperatures in Salisbury and Greater London reached 18C by 5am, according to the Met Office.
The weather bureau confirmed that Yeovilton in Somerset and Crosby in Merseyside recorded the highest overnight temperatures in England, both reaching 19.7C by 6am on Saturday.
OMG, 19.7 C, why, that's ummm, 67.5 F! People in Maryland would be breaking out the shorts and t-shirts, while Floridians might be shedding their winter coats!
