UK set for possible ‘heatwave conditions’ – London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com

UK is forecast for fine and settled warm weather conditions with high temperatures for next week.

From Sunday throughout the week much of the UK will see temperatures of 20C by mid-week, parts of the UK could see signs of a heatwave.

Neil Armstrong is a Met Office chief forecaster. He said: “After a brief, less settled, interlude on Friday and Saturday, fine conditions will return by Sunday and into next week.  For much of the UK this will be accompanied by a boost in temperatures with many places reaching the mid-20°Cs by the middle of next week.

“Some central and southern areas are likely to see temperatures approaching the values needed for heatwave conditions. Heatwave conditions need to remain in situ for three consecutive days, and by the middle of next week it is possible that some parts of the UK could be reaching heatwave thresholds.

“However, whether or not everyone experiences heatwave thresholds, the majority of the UK will experience the finest conditions and highest temperatures so far this year.”
