The Met Office said “hazy sunshine” is predicted for Merseyside<\/a>. Temperatures are set to remain high, reaching around 23C in the region and lows of 12C.<\/p>\n

The day will start off sunny, before turning partly cloudy at around 10am. It is set to remain partly cloudy for most of the day, however will remain warm.<\/p>\n

The Met Office<\/a> said: “Dry on Sunday with hazy sunshine. A chance of showers on Monday and Tuesday, perhaps heavy and thundery in places. Warm by day and nights turning somewhat milder too.”<\/p>\n

Monday will be sunny, however there will be light showers by 4pm. However, the Met Office said the weather is a “classic sort of spring set-up”.<\/p>\n

Simon Partridge, meteorologist for the Met Office<\/a>, said: “Going into summer, as we get more and more sunshine, the ground warms up more. At the moment we haven\u2019t had it (the sunshine) for long enough for the ground temperatures to be that warm, so then overnight, when we get those clear skies, the ground loses temperature pretty quick.\u201d<\/p>\n

During this time of year, it is common to see the \u201cbiggest range of temperatures\u201d between daytime highs and overnight lows, he added.<\/p>\n

This comes after the UK saw its warmest start to May on record, with highs of 29.3C in Kew Gardens, south-west London, on Thursday, May 1. The Environment Agency later warned that England is facing the risk of summer drought after the driest start to spring in 69 years has led to low reservoir levels, struggling crops and wildfires.<\/p>\n

The National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) said fire and rescue services in England and Wales have responded to 464 wildfires so far this year, including in Dartmoor and Errwood Valley in Derbyshire, and have called on the Government to invest in fire services to address this \u201cgrowing, year-round threat\u201d.<\/p>\n

The organisation warned that most wildfires are caused by human activity, including accidental and deliberate blazes, and that dry weather<\/a> can worsen the damage caused by fires.<\/p>\n

NFCC chairman Phil Garrigan said: \u201cWildfires are no longer a seasonal hazard \u2013 they are a growing, year-round threat to life, property and the environment, driven by the increasing impacts of climate change.<\/p>\n

\u201cFire and rescue services are having to balance their response to these growing numbers of extreme weather events while trying to maintain core emergency response.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not sustainable without proper support. We are urging the Government to use the upcoming spending review to deliver long-term, sustained investment in fire and rescue.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cWe cannot afford for fire and rescue to be the forgotten emergency service.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It will still feel warm for most of the dayPeople relaxing in the sunshine in Sefton Park(Image: Andrew…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":92088,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,4884,179,16,15,741],"class_list":{"0":"post-92087","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-liverpool","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom","14":"tag-weather"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114487882605916263","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92087","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=92087"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92087\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92088"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=92087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=92087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
