Temperatures are set to rise this week and it could even be hotter than Hawaii by the end of the week in parts of Wales. The Met Office is forecasting that temperatures could rise to 28°C in parts of Wales on Friday as warm winds from the continent are pulled towards the UK.
Welsh weather forecaster Derek Brockway has said that Friday has the "potential to be the hottest day of the year so far". He said: "Plenty more dry weather in the week ahead thanks to high pressure. Some good sunny spells and lighter winds. Temperatures on the rise. Very warm or hot on Thursday and Friday."
BBC weather forecaster Simon King said the peak of the heat this week will be on Friday where in the south east of the UK there could be the first 30°C of the year.
