UK weather: Friday could be the hottest day of the year. Temperatures this weekend are well above average | uk news

The UK is getting warmer and temperatures are expected to remain well above average over the next few days.

With highs reaching 20C (68F) in parts of the UK today, forecasters say there is a 30% chance of a new record being set for the hottest day of the year so far.

The figure to beat is the 20.9C (70F) seen in West Suffolk last Saturday as the heat brought in by Storm Kathleen passes through.

Sky News weather presenter Joanna Robinson said this week's warmer weather was the result of a south-westerly airflow heading towards the UK and Ireland.

“With more sunshine on Friday, there’s a better chance we’ll hit our highest temperature so far this year,” she added.

“Up to 22C (72F) is possible in southeast England on Friday and possibly again on Saturday before cooler air moves in from the northwest.

“There will be some mild nights Thursday and Friday nights, with temperatures remaining in the double digits.”

The Met Office forecast for Friday agrees that England and Wales are expected to be mostly dry with warm sunshine. However, the far west is likely to be cloudier.

London could see highs of 18C, while Belfast, Liverpool and Newcastle are all likely to see similar highs of 17C.

According to the Korea Meteorological Administration's weekend outlook, warm sunshine will continue in the southern and southeastern regions on Saturday.

Overnight temperatures may not fall below 13C (55F) in some areas, but this is somewhat different from the April record of 15.9C (60F) set in 2018.

Dry, warm and sunny weather will certainly have an effect on some this weekend, but not everyone will benefit as there will be occasional rain in the north and west.

Unfortunately this weather won't last. By Sunday, colder air will sink south, resulting in cooler temperatures for everyone.
