The final bank holiday weekend of May is nearly upon us – but will the weather be on our side?
High Wycombe, and other parts of Buckinghamshire, are set to sizzle this weekend with temperatures predicted to reach highs of 21°c.
Saturday (May 27) is even set to be hotter than Malaga in Spain, where temperatures are only expected to hit 20°C.
Even the weather conditions are set to be better as light rain showers are forecast in the Spanish city.
According to BBC Weather, Saturday (May 27) will be the best day of the week peaking at 21°C in High Wycombe and Marlow.
In Princes Risborough and Gerrards Cross temperatures are set to hit highs of 20°C.
The weather is predicted to stay fine and dry all weekend, with sunshine and cloudy spells in the forecast.
Met Office Chief Forecaster, Paul Gundersen, said: “The jet stream sitting to the north of the UK is holding unsettled weather systems at bay and allowing high pressure to dominate bringing fine weather to the vast majority of the UK.
“The current position of the high-pressure means we will see a westerly air flow over the UK, a cooler direction than if air was being brought up from the south, and areas such as Spain or Africa. Therefore, we are not likely to reach heatwave conditions, but temperatures will still be warm reaching the low 20’s for many, particularly in the South West and southern Wales.”
