Be prepared to dust off your barbecues as a mini-heatwave is on the horizon with temperatures set to soar past 20C<\/a> towards the end of April according to WX Charts.<\/p>\n

The Iberian jet stream will be responsible for this warm spell, ushering in balmy and dry conditions from southern Europe. The high-altitude wind pattern is expected to steer clear skies and warmer air from the Iberian Peninsula right into the UK’s backyard.<\/p>\n

Forecasters predict that this could send temperatures skyrocketing to a scorching 24C in parts of the south<\/a>. From Friday, April 25, the warmth will start to flow in with the jet stream’s arrival. As per the outlook, the city could bask in 19C heat on Saturday, April 26, and Sunday, April 27.<\/p>\n

By Monday, April 28, temperatures may soar to 22C in Bristol. Elsewhere, those in the Midlands and along the south coast can expect 21C. Norfolk isn’t being left out either with a chance of 24C there on April 27. Over in Wales, the mercury is poised to hit 20C, with Cardiff expected to experience its peak warmth at 6pm on April 26.<\/p>\n

Adding more good news, the Met Office’s long-range forecast stretching from Sunday, April 20, to Tuesday, April 29, predicts “dry and sunny” conditions, coupled with temperatures “around or slightly above average” throughout the country.<\/p>\n

However, forecasters are also warning of a “risk of some heavy rain or showers”. The unsettled weather<\/a> is more likely at the start of the period, before the Iberian jet stream arrives.<\/p>\n
