Giving their verdict on the weather to see out spring, the Met Office says: “The area of high pressure which has brought fine conditions across the UK over the last few days is forecast to extend out toward the end of the month.
“With high pressure conditions settling in for the coming week, the warmth we will experience will be home grown as clear skies will allow more of the May sunshine to reach ground level, gradually raising temperatures to expected highs of 25°C for a day or two later this week.
“If you are looking forward to a spell of largely fine, sunny and warm conditions across the majority of the UK, then you are going to be in luck.
