:02:47. > :02:51.That's the hottest it's been in 100 years!

:02:52. > :02:55.But last night lots of places in the North of England got some

:02:56. > :02:59.freaky weather, rain, thunder and lighting.

:03:00. > :03:04.And Manchester City's match against Borussia Monchengladbach

:03:05. > :03:09.But today some places could reach 28 degrees.

:03:10. > :03:21.Head online to let us know how your keeping your cool.

:03:22. > :03:24.Next, scientists are drilling out samples of ice in places where it's

:03:25. > :03:26.melting, and storing it in Antarctica to make sure it

:03:27. > :03:31.This team of scientists is living and working on a big piece

:03:32. > :03:33.of ice called a glacier in the Alps in France.

:03:34. > :03:38.But because of the rising temperature of the

:03:39. > :03:42.The teams are taking samples of glacier to study before it

:03:43. > :03:47.They want to rescue the information locked deep inside the ice.

:03:48. > :03:49.The glacier was formed by snow falling over many years

:03:50. > :03:54.The snowfall is made of water from the earth's atmosphere,

:03:55. > :03:57.so by studying the glacier, scientists can see what was in our

:03:58. > :04:06.Snowfall will collect all impurities in the atmosphere,

:04:07. > :04:11.and these will be duplicated in the glacier.

:04:12. > :04:14.So layers upon layers of all this information stored in the glacier.

:04:15. > :04:18.The BBC's science reporter Victoria Gill went to France

:04:19. > :04:21.to see how the team take the samples of ice.

:04:22. > :04:24.That's an ice core now coming up from about 30 metres depth.

:04:25. > :04:27.They will cut it and they'll move it into this tent, then they'll store

:04:28. > :04:31.it in their ice cave which is their mountain freezer.

:04:32. > :04:33.This is the beginning of a very long journey for these ice samples.

:04:34. > :04:37.They are being stored in France for two years but then they will be

:04:38. > :04:40.taken to Antarctica, the world's biggest freezer,

:04:41. > :04:44.to be studied by scientists for many years to come.

:04:45. > :04:47.Lots of glaciers all over the world are changing and melting,

:04:48. > :04:50.but this new project means that scientists will be able

:04:51. > :04:55.to study their secrets long after they've disappeared.

:04:56. > :04:58.That's all from me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour.
