The UK is set for the hottest August bank holiday ever as temperatures are expected to reach up to 28°C.
The warmest August bank holiday Monday on record was in 2017, when a temperature of 28.2°C was recorded.
Bookmakers Betway think that next week could be hotter but according to forecasters, Merseyside will miss out on this hot weather.
However it's not all bad news.
The Met Office is predicting temperatures between 18°C-20°C for the region, with sunny intervals expected.
A spokesman for netweather.tv predicted warm weather for much of the country over the bank holiday weekend, reports Devon Live.
They said: "There are signs that parts of the UK could see some fine, warm and sunny weather.
"This looks more likely for England and inland Wales, but the far north-west of England joins Northern Ireland and Scotland with a higher risk of rain, more cloud and temperatures remaining in the high teens/low 20s.
"For the rest of England and Wales temperatures could reach into the mid to high twenties.
"However, there is still a lot of uncertainty with the weekend forecast. High pressure is trying to build up from the south but low pressures and weather fronts continue to interrupt from the north-west."
Betway is offering 2/1 odds on the August bank holiday being the hottest on record.
