Brits are set to bask in a third straight day of 20C temperatures on Thursday and the scorching weather is expected to carry on into the weekend.
After an icy start to March, spring has clearly arrived with sunshine and blue skies up and down the country.
Once again the mercury hit 20C on Wednesday and the hotter than average temperatures are expected to continue for the coming days with the Met Office estimating they are as much as 10C above the norm for the time of year.
