“It’s probably going to stay dry for the most part on Friday, perhaps even into the weekend.
“But there’s a tendency as we head into the weekend for there being a little bit more in the way of cloud and there could be a few showers.”
In conclusion, Brian Gaze, a forecaster from The Weather Outlook, told The Express: “The hottest April since records began is on the cards in central England.
“It’s an awesome April, with temperatures over 10C above average at times, and 21-23C sunshine expected at times this week.”
