Before storm risk: Warming to 20s by midweek

Summer truly begins to arrive later in the week as temperatures across the UK reach the low to mid-20s.

Wednesday sees widespread highs in the 20s, though still a little cooler for Scotland and Ireland, marking the start of a warmer period moving deeper into June.

Despite the heat returning, it does also bring the chance of thunderstorms which may develop on Thursday, more on that as we near the day.
