Temperatures are set to soar in the United Kingdom this weekend as sophisticated weather models predict the possibility of a heatwave. According to the Met Office’s UKV weather model, temperatures will remain low in the coming days, with a maximum of 14C expected tomorrow, April 25. The south coast is likely to experience the warmest weather, with temperatures expected to reach around 10C to 11C elsewhere. On Friday, April 26, maximum temperatures are forecast to range from 12C to 13C in southern regions and 10C to 11C further north. However, temperatures are set to rise on Saturday, April 27, with possible maximum temperatures reaching 17C along the south coast and in Kent. Southern-central regions could see temperatures of 14C, while Sunday, April 28, will bring another temperature hike, with warm conditions expected to spread more widely. Highs of 18C may be seen in parts of East Anglia and Kent, while London, Cambridgeshire, and parts of Lincolnshire could see 17C. Most of Wales, Scotland, and northern parts of England will experience cooler weather, while the Midlands and southern-central regions can expect highs of 15C. Northern Ireland will likely reach 12C. This gradual temperature increase is expected to continue into May, with potential heatwave conditions on the horizon. According to James Madden of ExactaWeather, temperatures could reach the mid- to high-20Cs during periods of sunshine. While a heatwave is possible, it remains uncertain whether temperatures will meet the heatwave threshold. The Met Office defines a heatwave as a period of at least three consecutive days with maximum temperatures exceeding a certain threshold, which varies between UK counties but typically ranges from 25C to 28C.
