The heat is on again....
Friday is shaping up to be another scorcher over most of the UK and Ireland.
Hottest places today are likely to be mid and western coasts of Wales, together with northwest England and western Scotland. here, temperatures could reach 28 or even 29C. For most of the country temperatures will be well into the 20's.
If you are outdoors, today or over the weekend, do take extra care. The sun is almost at it's highest point in the sky at the moment so you should where hats and suncream and limit your exposure to the sun. Skin will burn quickly. You can check out Weatheronline's UV forecast here.
Whatever the weather, keep the sun shining!
