Scotland could be treated to temperatures “as high as 16C or 17C” on Easter Sunday as warm weather creeps in over the bank holiday weekend.
The Met Office said conditions are set to be “fine and relatively nice” over the long weekend with “some sunshine” before conditions take a turn on Easter Monday. It said much of the UK, “especially in the west”, will be rain-free and enjoy sunny spells on Friday and Saturday, despite a “frosty start in places”.
Easter Sunday could then be the “warmest day of the year so far”, with highs of up to 17C expected in eastern parts of Scotland. While temperatures will heat up, it won't break last year's record of 19.5C.
