Natural England's Fire Severity Index has placed much of England at "very high" risk of wildfires, with certain areas across southern England and the Midlands facing an "exceptional" threat.
Derbyshire Fire and Rescue has been called to two moorland wildfires in recent days, declaring a major incident following the impact of a blaze at Tintwistle Moor on Sunday night.
Area manager Ellie Gillatt said: "Firefighters continue to face challenging conditions as they work to tackle the wildfire and protect the surrounding infrastructure and environment."
East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service was summoned to a "large fire in the open" on the South Downs near Eastbourne on Saturday, while crews also battled a blaze at Devil's Dyke in South Downs National Park in West Sussex.
Dave Swallow, National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) wildfire deputy lead and lead tactical adviser, cautioned that the dry, sunny and hot conditions "significantly increase wildfire risk".
The Met Office has disclosed that record-breaking temperatures have resulted in 2026 becoming the first year to register 35C on six separate days.
This surpassed the previous record established in 1976 and 2020 when five days were logged with temperatures exceeding 35C.
This year is also the first to witness temperatures of 35C or higher across three calendar months, and shattered the record for most temperatures of 34C or higher, with nine thus far this summer.
