Temperatures in the UK will continue to get hotter as the week goes on culminating in the mid-20s on Good Friday with the heatwave continuing through the Easter weekend. Met Office weather forecaster Aiden McGivern explained that although Thursday may start misty and slightly chilly, temperatures will quickly soar to the twenties. He added that it will continue to get hotter as we move towards Saturday.
He began by saying: “Today marks the first day for many of us of the warm spell that is expected to stick around into the Easter weekend.
“Sunny for the majority and certainly feeling warmer away from the east coast.
“As we started Wednesday the latest weather front brought some cloud cover, some fog as well and a few bits of rain.
“But the rain is now fizzling out and the cloud breaking up and widely we will see sunny skies developing up and down the country.
