🔥 Wales sizzles in record-breaking heat! Cardiff just hit a sweltering 32.9°C, smashing records for the hottest May day ever. But don’t pack away the brollies just yet! 🌦️
The Met Office warns of potential isolated thunderstorms and showers rolling in later today. While most will enjoy a sunny Wednesday with temps peaking at 29°C, you might just catch a dramatic lightning show in the afternoon! 🌩️
The recent heatwave had everyone flocking to the beaches and parks, soaking up the sunshine or cooling down at splash pads. Bute Park took the crown with the highest temp recorded, beating Monday’s record at Hawarden Airport.
Forecasters say the warm spell isn’t over, but it’s cooling slightly. Expect a warm, bright evening, with showers possibly affecting West Wales by 2pm and creeping northwards by 11pm. These might be heavy and thundery, especially in the west. 🌧️
Looking forward to Thursday, it’s set to be another dry and sunny day with plenty of that late spring sunshine. Temperatures will reach a delightful 26°C. However, by Sunday, expect the warmest air to drift south, bringing temps back to more typical levels for this time of year.
Enjoy the sun while it lasts, but keep an eye out for those dramatic skies! 🌤️🌦️
