The weather is set to heat up across the country, with Merseyside expecting temperatures in the late 20Cs.
After some cloud this morning it's predicted the afternoon will be filled with sunny spells. The Met Office reports that over the weekend it will be fine and dry, with warm light winds and a maximum temperature of 21C.
From next week onwards, however, it will begin to get hotter, with the mercury hitting 25C upwards from Monday. There may be a risk of some showery rain but that would be in the early morning or late afternoon.
