BRITAIN will be hotter than IBIZA today as temperatures soar to 18C – and it is forecast to be even warmer next month.
Warm temperatures will ring in the weekend after a string of sunny days, but soak it up while it lasts.
Early morning frost and fog, especially in the southwest, will clear later today to leave a fine day for most with “long spells of warm sunshine”, the Met Office said, ahead of a potential 19C scorcher tomorrow.
Met Office forecaster Richard Miles told The Sun Online: “Our temperature estimates for today have an upper range of 18 for London, possibly 19 tomorrow.
“The 30 day forecast does suggest we’re likely to see some high pressure areas later in April that would be likely to bring above average temperatures for the time of year, but it’s too early to give any definite temperatures.”
Yesterday temperatures hit 16.8C in Fyvie Castle, Scotland, while Sennybridge in Wales recorded lows of -3.2C.
Tonight will also be mainly dry, though outbreaks of rain are expected over Northern Ireland and Scotland.
APRIL SHOWERS
Sadly, the recent spring sunshine won’t last for long – as the jet stream pushes southwards over the coming days, bringing some rain over the weekend.
Tomorrow will be “largely fine and warm” in the South with some outbreaks of rain possible, while the North is expected to be “cold and bright with a few showers”.
On Mothering Sunday it will begin to feel colder, with temperatures dropping to around 11C in the Southwest.
A Met Office forecast said: “Next week will be off to a chilly but mainly fine start on Monday, though it will gradually become more changeable through the week.
“There will be rain and strong winds at times, mainly in the northwest of the UK, where gales are likely.
“Some rain is possible in the south too, but there will be more in the way of dry weather.
“The unsettled weather is likely to continue into mid April.”
Colder air will also feed in, with high temperatures dropping to around the 10C mark.

‘HEATWAVE’ ON THE HORIZON
But things could get hotter in the second half of April – with temperatures hitting 26C as plumes of warm air travel northwards from Africa.
The Weather Outlook’s Brian Gaze added: “With computer models strongly favouring a warm spring, there is potential for the record for the hottest spring to be challenged.
“Highs of 26C are likely in April. Plumes of warm air from Africa are expected.
“And there is an increased chance of a hot and settled summer due to the trend for more high pressure, which brings hot conditions in summer.”
The three-month outlook from the Met Office says: “For March-April-May as a whole, above-average temperatures are more likely than below-average temperatures.”
The average temperature for April is 11.5C although the highest-ever April temperature in the UK hit 29.4C on April 16, 1949, in London’s Camden Square.
