Forecasters Predict a Mediterranean May for the South West

Alright everyone, it's me Freddy.

Do you remember back in February when I blogged about how this summer is going to the hottest on record ever?!

Well it looks like we're getting an early glimpse of things to come, with the first heatwave of the year expected later this month!

Temperatures could rise to a sweltering 82F for 2 whole weeks! That should heat the sea up nicely for when I surf during my cheap summer holidays.

It should keep Cheffy quiet for a while too – he's always boasting about the weather in the Mediterranean!

Exacta Weather expert James Madden said: "It's going to get particularly warm from the middle of the month.

"The temperature could climb into the mid and high 20s in southern England and it will be above average for the rest of the country.

"Within the next ten days we should begin to see lots of sunshine and pleasant weather and that is set to continue until the start of June.

"This is going to be the first big heatwave of the year.

"Temperatures could get up to 28C (82.4F) which will give the second half of May a Mediterranean feel.

"It's being caused by a build up of high pressure from Spain and should stick around for at least two weeks.”
