“There is a 10% chance of 40 degrees celsius,” Laura revealed.
“These temperatures, that potentially mean our amber warning, some people are wondering if it could go red, that would make a national emergency,” she continued.
“And it means, not just the very vulnerable, everyone at every age category at risk of the extreme heat and there will be hundreds, if not thousands of fatalities due to this heatwave.”

Whilst some will have taken Laura’s warnings seriously, others were furious with the star for apparently “scaremongering”.
