But weather forecasters are already warning of a change ahead.

They issued an advanced warning for next week when it looks like a return to the more normal British summer of sunshine and showers.

Barry Gromett, forecaster with the Met Office, said it would be lovely until the weekend, when a turning point was on the cards.

“There will be another couple of good days, but we will see a bit of a change from Friday.

“I think Friday will still be mainly fine, but there might be the odd rogue shower around, although I don’t think it will come to much.”

Mr Gromett said that until then, he expected temperatures to be in the mid-20s across the region.

“Saturday may be fine, with perhaps the odd shower,” he said.

“By next week there will be a return to the more normal conditions: a mixture of sunshine and showers.”

Mr Gromett said he expected the weather to be more changeable next week in general, with temperatures around the 20 degrees mark.
