BRITAIN is set for another spring scorcher this weekend – with baking temperatures set to make it hotter than Madrid.
According to the Met Office, London could see heat of 19C making the capital seven degrees warmer than the Spanish capital Madrid – which is forecast to see temperatures of 12C Saturday.
Meanwhile, it has also been confirmed Saturday and Sunday will see “sunny spells and scattered showers” in the east and south.
It added that conditions will be “breezy through the weekend” but it will be “rather warm in the south and west, but colder by Monday”.
Weather forecasts from WXCharts also show a large plume of snow sweeping in over Scotland and northern England on Thursday 5 May.
High winds of up to 62km/h (39mph) will then move across the country on Friday 6 May, while western and northern parts can expect speeds of 75km/h on Saturday 7 May.
The Met Office meanwhile anticipates a more modest phase of changeable weather to see in the new month, with their long range weather forecast from Wednesday 27 April to Friday 6 May reading: “Most areas remaining dry, but showers possible in the north, and later the far south. Likely to be breezy in the southwest, and the south at times.”
And, to top it all off, the mercury is forecast to plunge to -3C next week.
Met Office forecaster Tom Morgan told the Express that “some rural spots” could even see lows of -3C in overnight frosts during the first part of next week.
