UK Braces for Weekend Heatwave: Sunshine and Highs Expected
20 Apr
Summary
- Temperatures are expected to exceed 15C across the UK.
- Cheshire may reach 19C, with surrounding areas hitting 17C.
- Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales likely to be cooler.
High pressure is set to dominate the UK's weather pattern at the start of next month, promising a largely dry and sunny weekend for many. Temperatures are predicted to climb above 15C across much of the country.
Cheshire is forecast to experience the warmest conditions, potentially reaching 19C on Saturday, with neighbouring areas expecting temperatures around 17C. In contrast, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and most of Wales are anticipated to be significantly cooler.
The Met Office suggests that while most areas will enjoy clear or sunny periods, there's a possibility of colder air attempting to push south towards the end of next week. This could bring brief, showery spells, some potentially wintry, to the northeast. Winds are expected to be light overall, though they may strengthen briefly in the northeast during any colder air intrusion.
