Some very nice weather on the way, with the Azores high nosing in to
give warmth and light winds with sunshine for many. Barbie time really
this weekend, with 25C quite possible in some areas and perhaps 28-30
in some fortunate locations. High summer there really. We'll really
notice the change in the evenings and mornings, as we'll lose the cold
feel that we've had.

The high does look like it will persist, blocking the Atlantic, but
the odds are that it will settle to our west, after the weekend
lowering the temperatures somewhat and also introducing the
possibility of more ash from iceland and more air traffic
disruptions.

A weekend to be out and about! Enjoy.

28-30C fortunate!!!
You have to be kidding.
I remember when I lived in Crowthorne Berkshire we got that kind of heat
every year - guaranteed and it was so oppressive.
Thank goodness I now live where anything much above 24C is rare.
On hot days I prefer to stay at home and just do nothing, definitely not to
be "out and about" - far too sweaty (unless it is on the sea of course).
