UK Temperatures Expected to Reach 18°C Next Week After Prolonged Cold Snap

The Met Office forecasts a midweek warm-up with highs surpassing seasonal averages, marking a shift from recent frosty conditions.

The UK is set to experience warmer weather next week, with temperatures potentially reaching 18°C by Wednesday in southern regions.
This marks a significant departure from the recent cold snap, which brought sub-zero nights and snowfall to parts of the country, including the Cheltenham Festival racecourse.
High pressure moving toward the continent will allow warmer air from Europe to flow into the UK, contributing to the midweek temperature increase.
London and the southeast are expected to see the highest temperatures, while northern areas like Glasgow will remain cooler, with highs around 12°C.
Clear skies and sunny spells are predicted for much of the week, although overnight frost and fog may persist in some areas.
