A marine heat wave has been building in the ocean surrounding the UK during an exceptionally warm and dry spring.

March 2025 was the sunniest March on record (since 1910 ), with 185 hours of sunshine.

April set new records for UK solar power generation, with a peak of 12.2 gigawatts ( GW ) being produced on April 1 .

The intensity of a marine heat wave is generally tied to persistent high-pressure areas remaining static over the UK , but it is still unclear whether or not this is an emerging climate pattern, or just an episode within the general patterns of change within UK seas.
