The Met Office has said more sunshine is predicted for Liverpool this weekend. On Friday, August 15, temperatures will reach highs of around 22C and bright weather is set for most of the day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tonight will be warm and sunny this evening and staying dry overnight. The Met Office<\/a> said low cloud may develop in places later in the night but is set to remain mild with a minimum temperature of around 14C.<\/p>\n

Over the weekend, temperatures will peak at around 26C and the region is once again to bask in sunshine. It will begin to cool down on Tuesday with temperatures dropping to averages of around 24C and 22C on Wednesday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Met Office said: “Saturday: A cloudier start to the day is possible for some, but sunny spells soon developing. Mainly sunny by the afternoon and turning very warm. Light winds. Maximum temperature 27C.<\/p>\n

“Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday: Fine on Sunday with plenty of sunshine developing. Often dry and warm early next week, but thundery showers are possible later on Monday. Warm or very warm with light winds.”<\/p>\n

In London, highs of 30C are predicted, while Cardiff will only be slightly cooler at 29C. Further north, Belfast and Edinburgh are expected to be a little milder, with temperatures reaching 22C and 24C respectively.<\/p>\n

Similar temperatures are expected in Manchester, which will hit a top of 24C, and Newcastle which will reach 22C. As the heat concentrates across southern and southwestern England, temperatures will climb to 30C in Salisbury and 29C in Cambridge, while central areas like Nottingham are also expected to see highs of 28C.<\/p>\n

It comes as firefighters travelled across the UK to help tackle the major wildfire at Holt Heath, Dorset, fuelling calls for increased firefighting resources.<\/p>\n

Ben Selby, Fire Brigades Union assistant general secretary said services had undergone \u201c14 years of austerity\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe loss of one in 5 firefighter posts to cuts, with fire engines taken off the run and fire stations closed up and down the country, means that there is no resilience left,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWildfires are intensive incidents, requiring a large number of firefighters and specialist resources. They are becoming increasingly severe and frequent as a result of the climate emergency.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue estimated the blaze had burned through 72ha and would remain on the scene overnight.<\/p>\n

\u201cCrews are still working in three sectors dealing with an increase in flare-ups, hotspots and deep-seated fires identified using drones,\u201d the statement read. This is due to the weather<\/a> conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Crews travelled from Merseyside, South Wales, Greater Manchester, Leicestershire, Surrey, Lincolnshire, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, Avon, Essex and Kent among others, to assist local emergency services.<\/p>\n

Heat health alerts were extended into next week for much of England.<\/p>\n

Officials have said the country is suffering from \u201cnationally significant\u201d water shortfalls.<\/p>\n

The national drought group, which includes the Met Office, regulators, government, water companies and other organisations, has met as five areas of the country remain in drought, with six more in prolonged dry weather status.<\/p>\n

The UK Health Security Agency said yellow warnings will remain in place for Yorkshire and Humber, the East and West Midlands, London and the South East, South West and east of England until 6pm on August 18.<\/p>\n

The weekend should be dry and sunny for most parts of the UK, with the mercury forecast to hover around 30C on Saturday and 29C on Sunday in south-west England.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The region is set to bask in more sunshineWorkers relaxing in the sunshine in Princes Dock(Image: Liverpool Echo)…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":346219,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,4884,378,179,16,15,741],"class_list":{"0":"post-346218","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-in-the-news","12":"tag-liverpool","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom","15":"tag-weather"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115032163923690257","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346218","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=346218"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346218\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/346219"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=346218"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=346218"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=346218"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
