That's largely an WP:ILIKEIT argument. Can you point us to any sources describing significant or WP:LASTING effects of this particular Indian summer? The article as it stands only quotes minor anecdotal issues, such as selling fewer raincoats. Oh my! — JFG talk 20:59, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The article currently has 16 references and from a number of sources. Also, the variety of sources suggest that the heatwave was significant enough for it to receive widespread coverage from the UK media so I'd say that this helps to make it notable enough for inclusion on Wikipedia.
