Sunshine is on its way!
Nottingham will be experiencing its hottest day of the year so far this bank holiday weekend, with temperatures expected to reach highs of 21C. The Met Office said the area of high pressure, which has brought fine conditions across the UK over the last few days, is forecast to continue through the weekend and into next week.
Nottingham is also forecast to reach 20C on Friday, May 26, and 18C on Sunday, May 28. The city will then remain at around 18C for most of next week.However, it will still be much hotter abroad this weekend as Mallorca is set for 27C weather and it will be 28C in Rome. Forecaster Simon Partridge said highs of 24C are possible in south-east Wales and around the Bristol Channel on Saturday and Sunday.
Rain is unlikely to trouble the UK over the next few days, with Met Office deputy chief forecaster Steven Keates saying indications are that the dry, bright weather is likely to continue for most – with little in the way of rain throughout next week. Met Office chief forecaster Paul Gundersen said: “The jet stream sitting to the north of the UK is holding unsettled weather systems at bay and allowing high pressure to dominate bringing fine weather to the vast majority of the UK.
Meanwhile, travel experts are warning of a busy time on the roads. RAC spokesman Rod Dennis said: “We fully expect families to make the most of the largely fine weather over the coming days which is we’re forecasting the busiest late May bank holiday since before the pandemic.
