The BBC have collated a few images from a European satelite that show the heat and pollution that is amassing over the UK during the current heatwave.

You can clearly see how the built up areas like London and Manchester suffer as the heat and pollution are trapped by the still air and buildings.

I agree, I have been in Thailand recently and the pollution in Bangkok was so much worse due to the heat being trapped in the city.

  Hi Laura,
  
  I've experience the same thing - I was in Hong Kong last year and you could taste the pollution in the air.
