The record for the hottest day of the year has been on top several times this week. <\/p>\n

Forecasters said high temperatures could reach 22C in parts of Britain on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Temperatures could rise to 24C in south east England on Wednesday, before the weather turns cooler at the end of the week.<\/p>\n

This is just one degree less than the hottest temperature ever recorded in early April, when the mercury soared to 25C in 2011 and 2020.<\/p>\n

The hottest temperatures ever recorded could be seen three times this week.<\/p>\n

This comes in the wake of Hurricane Dave,<\/strong> Winds of up to 70mph lashed parts of northern England, Scotland and Wales over the Easter weekend, causing widespread damage and disruption.<\/p>\n

A Met Office spokesperson said: \u201cAs Storm Dave has now moved away, and this high pressure is building behind it, we are now pulling warm air off the continent.<\/p>\n

“It’s one of those seasons where it can change very quickly from day to day.”<\/p>\n

The hot weather isn’t going to last long – with big falls down to 10C by Thursday.<\/p>\n

“At this time of year it all depends entirely on wind direction,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the next few days, we’re going to be pulling in that warm, southerly air, which will allow us to get temperatures into the mid-20s.<\/p>\n

“As we head into Thursday, we will see temperatures return to normal for the time of year as we see the weather become more variable as rain and showers increase.”<\/p>\n

The Met Office said the warm conditions this week have arrived earlier than expected.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
