Today’s weather – sunny and high temperatures

Cloud and outbreaks of rain should give way to hot sunny weather on Friday…before the thunderstorms return again.

However, the rising temperatures and sunny spells will lead to high pollen counts, leading to problems for hayfever sufferers.

Temperatures, which will hover around 12C to 13C will soar to 23C by the mid-afternoon. However, heavier spells of rain are being forecast for late evening and into Monday night.

Sunday: Feeling cooler than the past few days with some scattered showers in the morning.

On Saturday, it will be a cloudy start but a mainly dry day with some bright spells developing.

However, during the afternoon some cloud is going to spread form the west with a little rain possible.
