YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Life UK set for April heatwave with temperatures reaching 28 degrees Celsius By Kanika Banwait - March 16, 2022 We know we say the same thing every year, but this winter has really dragged on, hasn’t it? Spring is officially landing on 20 March, and we could not be more ready for it. Of course, that usually doesn’t guarantee endless sunshine and warm weather, but this year, the UK is set to see a mega April heatwave. That’s right, this Easter weekend you may find yourself making a trip to the beach as temperatures are predicted to reach 28 degrees Celsius. Usually, temperatures reach a daily high of around 12C in April and we experience lows of around 4C.

He added that spikes in temperatures are likely to become much more common as a result of global warming. Speaking to the Express, Jim said: ‘I know March is the start of Spring but I think we’re probably going to get properly into April before we start to see the searing sort of temperatures. I wouldn’t be surprised to see 26C, 27C, 28C in the middle of April.’ He then added: ‘Longer-term, given what’s happening globally in terms of the temperature profiles in the southern hemisphere and what’s also happening in the United States, I would not be surprised if we started to see some big highlights – in whichever direction it goes, either cold or hot. ‘It is more likely that we see those spikes of heat at early stages because of global warming. It’s too difficult to be certain at this moment, but I would not be surprised to see the Summer deliver the same kind of heat stress at times.’ READ MORE: How to make your home more eco-friendly Getty ImagesSo while the prospect of a heatwave after such awful weather as of late is exciting, the cause is pretty alarming. The forecaster also said the UK will begin to see milder weather at the end of February in the coming years, which will be mixed in with colder spells. He said: ‘By the time we get to the end of February, we might actually be seeing a bit more in the way of mildness and warmth starting to filter in from day to day. A little bit stop-start – so you get a couple of days of 12C, 13C, 14C,15C and then back to 6C, 7C and 8C. So that interchangeable weather is probably what we’ll see.’ READ MORE: The most popular spring-inspired baby names revealed RELATED ARTICLESMORE FROM AUTHOR Everything we know about The Crown season 5 Aldi s exercise equipment is on sale with up to 50% off The best Halloween events for 2022 across the UK Popular in Life The You magazine team reveal their New Year s resolutions December 31, 2021 Susannah Taylor The TLC tools your body will love January 23, 2022 How to stop living in fear February 6, 2022 Susannah Taylor My pick of the fittest leggings February 27, 2022 Women’ s Prize for Fiction 2022 winner announced June 17, 2022 These BBC dramas are returning for a second series June 30, 2022 Susannah Taylor gives the lowdown on nature s little helper – CBD April 17, 2022 The baby names that are banned across the world April 27, 2022 The Queen has released her own emojis May 26, 2022 Sally Brompton horoscopes 27th June-3rd July 2022 June 26, 2022 Popular CategoriesFood2704Life2496Fashion2240Beauty1738Celebrity1261Interiors684 Sign up for YOUMail Thanks for subscribing Please check your email to confirm (If you don't see the email, check the spam box) Fashion Beauty Celebrity Life Food Privacy & Cookies T&C Copyright 2022 - YOU Magazine.
