UK could see temperatures as high as 20C
The Met Office predicts sunny spells will raise temperatures to nearly 20C across England and Wales on Wednesday, making it the warmest day of 2026 so far.
- On Wednesday, the Met Office predicts parts of the UK could reach 20C, possibly Britain's warmest day so far, with sunny spells across England and Wales.
- After last week's Arctic blast, the warmer weather coincides with the spring equinox on Friday, signalling longer days and higher temperatures across England and Wales.
- Dan Harris, chief forecaster at the Met Office, said Wednesday looks likely to be the warmest day of the week for many, with high pressure dominant and a big diurnal range causing chilly nights and possible air frost.
- Tuesday will be more unsettled with rain moving east and temperatures about 13C to 15C across England and Wales, while Thursday is expected to be dry and settled with more sunshine.
- In practical terms, the shift from last week's Arctic blast to a spring seasonal transition highlights notable short-term weather volatility for Britons, with warmer days and colder nights expected.
