tv wrote in his blog: “Temperatures on Monday and Tuesday could reach 20-23C in London, Cardiff and Manchester, with sunshine. “Perhaps could see 24-25C in a few spots, with models tending to underestimate the temperatures by 1-2C, especially at range. “Temperatures north of the border in Scotland not quite as warm, reaching the high teens at best in Edinburgh or Glasgow.

“So not a bad end to the month and start to May next week, with some warm sunshine on offer for many, especially across England and Wales, with higher temperatures during the first half of the week.” The Met Office ’s long-range forecast between April 28 and May 7 reads: “Most likely starting off widely fine with sunny spells, following the clearance of early morning mist and fog. “This most likely in the south, whilst in the north there's a greater chance of more cloud which may take some time to clear.

“There's a small chance that fine and very warm weather could extend right across the country over the following days, but it's more likely that cloud/rain in the northwest will sink southeast introducing more changeable and cooler conditions for a time mid-week. “It then becomes roughly equal chances that we see a resumption of mainly fine and dry conditions versus a continuation of more changeable weather with a mixture of rain and drier interludes.”.
