UK could get the hottest day of the year on Sunday
Saturday, June 3 saw a high of 23.9C recorded in Porthmadog, and temperatures are expected to be slightly higher on Sunday.
As Met Office meteorologist Rachel Ayers said people can expect 24C or 25C in the warmer spots and there could even be a high of 26C in sheltered areas in the west.
Sharing “We’d be looking at that somewhere in the west, probably similar kind of areas, parts of Wales, maybe south-west England.”
Ms Ayers said a breeze across the south, particularly the English Channel coasts, will affect temperatures in those areas.
Eastern coasts will see temperatures on Sunday of around 15C or 16C, while inland areas will be warmer with highs of 18C to 20C.
