Two months after the summer heatwave, new data underlines the huge impact climate change is having on the UK.
More than half of the UK's oldest active weather stations recorded their hottest day ever in 2022, according to Met Office data.
New all-time highs were set at 56 of the 109 longest standing stations during the July heatwave.
One west Yorkshire village broke its previous record by a whopping 6.3C.
Scientists at the Met Office who carried out the analysis described this summer's extreme temperatures as a "real indication of how our climate is changing".
Temperatures passed 40C (104F) for the first time, something "virtually impossible" without human-induced climate change, according to the Met Office.
The data includes measurements from active weather stations in the UK that had at least 50 years of observations.
