The Met Office has said there will be ‘fine weather’
Warm weather is on the way to parts of the UK next week with talks of a ‘mini heatwave’.
London will be hit with 23C temperatures on Tuesday, April 29 and Wednesday, April 30.
It will be slightly cooler in Birmingham, with the Met Office predicting highs of 21C.
The news follows an unseasonably dry April for most of the UK.
In a long range forecast from Sunday, April 27 to Tuesday, May 6, the forecaster said: “Starting off with something of a northwest to southeast split; higher pressure located towards the southeast should bring fine and increasingly warm conditions across at least southern UK, whilst there is a greater chance of periods of cloud, rain and stronger winds affecting the north.

“There will be fine weather here at times as well too however [sic].
“There’s a small chance that fine and very warm weather could extend right across the country early next week, but it’s more likely that cloud/rain in the northwest will sink southeast introducing more changeable and cooler conditions for a time mid-week.
“It then becomes roughly equal chances that we see a resumption of mainly fine and dry conditions versus a continuation of more changeable weather with a mixture of rain and drier interludes.”
From Wednesday, May 7 to Wednesday, May 21, it adds: “Forecast confidence is lower than average for this range, although fairly typical for late Spring.
“A typical mixture of drier and settled periods, and periods of wetter and more unsettled conditions, is on balance slightly more likely than predominantly unsettled or predominantly settled.
“Temperatures are likely to be around average overall, with a slightly increased chance of warm or hot spells.
“Any such spells could be accompanied by locally heavy showers and thunderstorms.”
