Weather forecasting maps have revealed the UK could be hit with temperatures as highs of 30C later this month. Temperatures recently have been lingering in the low to mid-20s throughout, a stark contrast from the scorching peaks and heatwaves we endured during the summer months earlier this year.
Cooler conditions have provided a welcomed break for many, with some desperately needed rainfall across Britain this week. However it appears there might be one final surge of summery weather on the horizon. New weather maps display Britain – especially England – highlighted in deep red zones towards the end of the week after next. This suggests that temperatures are set to climb beyond the seasonal norm.
Friday September 25 is anticipated to be the hottest day. The information reveals potential peaks of 29C around noon in eastern England, with 27C feasible quite extensively across central, eastern and southern areas. By 6pm the information indicates highs of 30C are achievable in eastern regions, with 28-29C expected across much of the remainder of England. Overall the charts suggest 20 counties might witness highs of 28C or above. They are all located in England, reports the Mirror.

The Met Office anticipates temperatures will stay near typical levels as we approach the month’s end. I added some “rather warm days” are also expected.
The Met Office prediction for September 16 to 25 reads: “Remaining changeable, with occasional rain or showers arriving from the North Atlantic, most frequent across northern and western parts of the UK, where some strong winds will also be possible at times.

“However, there will also be some reasonably dry and more settled periods interspersed, especially across southern areas. Temperatures for the period as a whole will probably be close to average overall, but there is scope for some rather warm days at times, along with occasional relatively cool nights giving the occasional grass frost.”
Before Brits can enjoy the hot weather the Met has warned many across the UK should brace for downpours this weekend in some parts of the country.
A Met Office forecast covering the entire weekend states: “Wet, and in places windy, weather will move southeastwards across the UK on Saturday, followed by sunshine and showers. Drier for most on Sunday, though further rain arriving on Monday.”
