Temperatures could climb to 28C in late burst of warmth
A summer-like day is in store for some on Sunday with above average temperatures, but the heat will be short-lived.
Temperatures in parts of the UK could soar to 28C (82F) on Sunday as a brief return of summer-like warmth sweeps through the region. A southerly wind will carry hot and humid air from the continent, pushing UK temperatures above average. South-east England, central-southern England, and the Welsh marches could see temperatures in the mid-20s Celsius during the day.
Southern France and Spain are currently experiencing intense heat, with some locations exceeding 45C. Spain saw its hottest day of 2026 on Thursday, with Huelva reaching 45.7C. This heat will be short-lived, as high pressure moves away on Monday, bringing cooler temperatures and more rain to northern Scotland.
