Coral cut the odds on a record-hot spring from 4/1 to 5/4.
The firm’s Harry Aitkenhead said: “Punters believe a sizzling spring is ahead.”
A Met Office spokesperson told The Sun: “For March-May, above-average temperatures are more likely than below-average.
“The probability UK average temperatures will fall into the warmest of our five categories is 50 per cent. The coldest category is 10 per cent.

The Weather Outlook’s Brian Gaze told the Daily Star: “With computer models strongly favouring a warm spring, there is potential for the record for the hottest spring to be challenged.
“26C highs are likely in April. Plumes of warm air from Africa are expected.
“And there is an increased chance of a hot and settled summer due to the trend for more high pressure, which brings hot conditions in summer.”

Sunday evening is expected to bring some showers in Scotland and Northern Ireland, particularly round the coasts.
The remnants of the Arctic blast are also thought to ensure it will be a little chilly in places.
And on Monday it will be dry for most with spells of sunshine – although there could be some showers in the very north of Scotland.
