It is height of Summer...

It is height of Summer at the moment.
This means, in the U.K. at least, that any protracted spell of sunny and warm weather gets to be described, in some newspapers, as a " Heatwave ".
This phenomenon causes some journalists to take a break from seeking the truth in a glass.
 (the " in vino veritas school of journalism ")
 Instead they stumble on through the mists to arrive at some long-forgotten nugget of learning that passes for journalistic endeavour-they check the statistical records for previous occurrences of similar weather.
