🌞 Feeling the heat yet? Wales is gearing up for a midweek mini heatwave, with temperatures set to reach a toasty 16°C! It’s a welcome change from the recent downpours, just in time for the start of spring.
The warm spell is expected to peak on Wednesday and Thursday, making these the hottest days of the year so far. Coastal areas might hit the jackpot with highs between 14°C and 16°C, and luckily, it’s going to stay mostly dry with some sunshine gracing our skies. 🌤️
According to the Met Office, Wednesday will be dry with a mix of clouds and sunny spells. The sunshine is predicted to increase throughout the day, making it feel milder as the lighter winds ease off. Expect those temperatures to stay pleasant even into the evening!
Thursday holds onto the warm forecast, with expectations of similar high temperatures before things start to cool down by Friday. But don’t worry, the dry weather and sunny spells should be sticking around a bit longer.
Looking further ahead, high pressure towards the south or southeast of the UK will keep things dry in the second week of March. Expect variable clouds and some sunshine, especially in the south. With the clear skies and gentle winds, watch out for a bit of overnight fog possibly making an appearance. 🌫️
So, if you’ve been waiting for an excuse to enjoy some time outdoors, this might be your chance. Just remember to keep your sunnies and a light jacket handy – it might be warm, but it’s still March after all! 🌷
