Leeds to sizzle in 17 hours of sunshine and 22C heat on Wednesday

It is perhaps the biggest sign yet that summer is not an idea anymore but a reality which is upon Leeds.

The weather on Wednesday is expected to be bright and sunny for long periods of time - the longest since the white stuff. The sun will rise at 4.52am and will set at 9.15pm.

This should give Leeds almost 16 hours and 23 minutes of daylight and sunshine too. However, after nightfall, some clouds are forecast to settle.

The Met Office said: "Early low cloud over western hills will soon clear to leave another fine and largely dry day, with good spells of sunshine. Feeling warm inland, but breezy at the coast. Maximum temperature 22 °C."

UV exposure is a risk, with a peak reading of seven in the afternoon. It may be important to use sunscreen or creams to avoid sunburns.

Temperatures of 22C are not sky high, but may cause heat illness as the seasons change. It maybe wise to hydrate.
