UK weather: Brits bask in glorious sunshine as temperatures set to reach 29C tomorrow – but thunderstorms to come
BRITS will bask in glorious sunshine tomorrow with temperatures set to reach 29C – but there are thunderstorms to come.
Forecasters said the start of the week will be sunny and very warm in the south and east of England.
Some parts might hit even the heatwave threshold before it cools down later this week.
The Met Office’s temperature map shows the mercury hitting 29C in London at 3pm tomorrow.
There will be some hazier sunshine across Scotland, Northern Ireland and north east England.
People in Glasgow and Aberdeen can look forward to rare 20C sunshine tomorrow afternoon.
But cloud and rain are set push across the north west – with thunderstorms expected by the middle of the week.
From Tuesday onwards it will be breezy and rather cloudy in the north, with a few showers.
The south will enjoy some hazy sunny spells before it gets increasingly muggy.
On Thursday the skies could turn thundery across a large swathe of the country.
But there are currently no Met Office weather or flood warnings in place anywhere in the UK.
