After thunderstorms and heavy rain this week, Bristol is poised to be hotter than Ibiza and Barcelona this weekend as a warm spell arrives. This means people can start to look forward to a mostly dry and sunny weekend in Bristol.
According to The Met Office, temperatures are expected to hit highs of 19 degrees over the weekend alongside drier days. This is a fraction warmer than it's expected to be in parts of Spain this weekend.
From Saturday (May 13) to Monday (May 15) it will be largely dry on Saturday, with cloud slowly increasing on Sunday with possible rain. However where there is sunshine, there will be warmth, according to the Met Office.
