Scotland to bask in heatwave as mercury to hit 25C

This is finally the news we've all been waiting for - the sun finally has its hat on in Scotland.

The next few days, and into the weekend, will see warm weather from Europe arrive.

The mercury will rise for us to around 25C on Thursday and Friday - so it's time to get the barbecue out.

Parts of central and western Europe are in the middle of a heatwave, with the potential for record breaking heat in France and Spain as temperatures rise into the high-30s and low, perhaps mid 40s Celsius.

This very warm air from Europe will be drawn towards the UK, allowing temperatures to rise into the high-20s in parts of Scotland.

So really we shouldn't complain over the next few days, as come next week the temperature will drop again to around 16C.

Taps Aff Scotland, it's about time we had some sunshine this year. Summer is finally here!
