Manchester and large parts of the UK have been lucky enough over the past week to be treated to a fair bit of clear skies and sunshine.
Today (Tuesday) there will be plenty of sun beaming through a few clouds with temperatures peaking at 17C in the mid-afternoon. It will stay consistently warm like this throughout the week with only some small drops in temperature as we move into the weekend.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) will be much warmer with the sun being front and centre without many clouds covering it up throughout the whole day. While temperatures will be relatively the same at 17C it will reach that peak much earlier than Tuesday and last for the majority of the afternoon, only cooling down slightly as we move into the evening.

On Thursday it is predicted that there will be a very sunny morning and mid-afternoon with periodic intervals of clouds covering up the sky. Temperatures are expected to reach as high as 16C in the mid-afternoon, cooling down significantly to 11C by 9pm.
The beginning of the weekend will continue to welcome the bright sun and warm weather with far more clouds predicted to roll in by Friday lunchtime that will remain well until the evening. Temperatures are expected to reach a peak of 16C by mid-afternoon.
The Met Office also predicts that Saturday and Sunday will continue to have nice weather "feeling pleasantly warm by day, but a touch chilly overnight, with a few morning mist patches".
"High pressure will continue to dominate through the majority of this period, bringing dry and settled conditions for most," it added. "Though it is likely to be cloudier across the far north with some rain and drizzle at times. Some localised mist and fog is possible overnight but will retreat to windward coasts by day.
"Daytime temperatures are likely to be above average at first, when it will feel warm in the prolonged spring sunshine, but will decline slowly through the period, with a low chance of significantly colder weather spreading from the north for a time. It could be windy at times in the north, with generally lighter winds for other parts of the United Kingdom."
