    Not if its expected to be late 30s or 40s like last year, because that is severe for this country. 

    But mid-20s with a cooling breeze is just a pleasant summer's day!

    So basically, the overly precautions nature of these messages are aimed at the vulnerable over 65s. So in short, if you’re not affected by the slight increase in temperature, don’t worry about it and enjoy the sunshine!
