The UK is set to be hit by two 20C 'mini heatwaves' in the coming weeks, with the first warm spell expected to arrive at the end of this week after a battering from strong winds
New weather maps indicate that the UK is set to experience two 20C 'mini heatwaves', including a 72-hour stretch of glorious sunshine. After enduring strong winds, Brits can look forward to a "mini heatwave" with temperatures expected to soar to 20C.
Midweek may remain windy, but by Thursday, temperatures are forecasted to rise, with BBC weather presenter Helen Willetts predicting it will feel "warm" over the subsequent 72 hours. "And that milder warmer Atlantic air is within through Thursday and indeed Friday to end the week and perhaps even to start the weekend but not full on as we get some colder air starting to dig in behind it as you can see. And so by the weekend or by the end of the weekend it's a return to slightly cooler weather.", reports the Mirror.
Weather mapping services NetWeather and WXCharts demonstrate a similar mild outlook for sunny spells towards the end of the week as well as the subsequent weekend. Doncaster, Colchester and Ipswich may experience peaks at 19C whilst other cities like Norwich, Cambridge, Nottingham, Hull, Bristol, Bolton, Inverness and Fraserburgh might touch up to 18C.
