Liverpool weather: Met Office predicts heatwave to return this week

The weather in Liverpool has taken a turn for the worse recently as temperatures dipped and rain showers returned.

But there's good news, as the heatwave we previously experienced looks to be returning.

For the majority of the week, Liverpool will be shrouded in cloud and hit by heavy rain.

However, on Friday June 12, forecasters predict temperatures will rise dramatically as the sunshine returns.

The end of the week will see highs of 20C, whilst the weekend is set for a balmy 21C.

The Met Office said: "The first few days of the period, including next weekend and into the start of the following week, should see the driest brightest weather across northern areas of the UK.

"Elsewhere, conditions will be rather changeable with some sunshine but also areas of rain or showers.

"Thunderstorms are also likely in places. Many parts will become warm, perhaps very warm, particularly northwestern areas.

"However, mist and low cloud will probably affect east coasts at times, making it cooler here.

"For the rest of the period confidence is low. However, conditions will probably be mixed, with periods of dry, bright weather, but also some spells of cloud and rain, perhaps accompanied by stronger winds.

"Temperatures will probably continue to be above average generally."
