UK could have the warmest start to April in six years
Forecasters say brisk southerly winds will push temperatures 6 to 10C above average, with the warmest day of the year expected in parts of England and Wales.
- On Tuesday and Wednesday, the UK will experience temperatures reaching up to 24C as brisk south-easterly winds drag warm air from Europe, bringing summer-like conditions.
- Met Office meteorologist Greg Dewhurst described the forecast as "unusually warm" for early April, following harsh conditions from Storm Dave that brought 70mph winds over the Easter weekend.
- Temperatures will range between 16C and 22C across England and Wales, sitting around 6 to 10C above typical April averages and potentially setting a new yearly high.
- Hayfever sufferers face a "very high" red pollen warning across England and Wales, with light winds exacerbating tree pollen counts nationwide during the warm spell.
- The warm spell will be short-lived, with temperatures across the UK expected to drop below 10C by Thursday as conditions turn more changeable and return to seasonal norms.
