Glasgow heatwave this week as temperatures expected to reach 27C

Glasgow is set to welcome warm temperatures once more with the mercury predicted to hit 27C later this week.

The Met Office weather forecast for Scotland's biggest city indicates that we could be set for four days of unbroken sunshine as the week progresses.

Temperatures in Glasgow look set to reach 23C on Wednesday, rising to 24C on Thursday, 27C on Friday and 26C on Saturday.

It comes as Britain is braced for another heatwave that will last longer than July's record-breaking hot spell, with highs of up to 35C expected this week down south, forecasters have said.

Temperatures over the coming days will remain lower than last month's scorching 43.C but the dry weather will continue over a "prolonged period", the Met Office has said.

The whole of England and Wales is likely to see sunshine and dry conditions over the coming week as high pressure builds across the UK.

Parts of north-west Scotland may be cloudier and breezier up to Wednesday, but fine weather is expected for all areas of the country later in the week.

Met Office meteorologist Tom Morgan said: "It will be a lot of sunshine for a vast majority of the UK and also temperatures rising day after day.

"Not everyone will initially see those sunny conditions, but towards the end of the week even Scotland and Northern Ireland will join the rest of the UK in having generally fine, sunny and very warm if not hot conditions."
