Get the suncream out- today is set to be a scorcher.
It could be the hottest day of the year, with temperatures reaching 30 degrees.
And Saturday and Sunday are looking good too, particularly for the south east.
But as always with British weather, there might be a downside- thunderstorms on bank holiday Monday.
Met Office spokesman said: ‘The more likely scenario is for rather mixed conditions during the Bank Holiday, with showery outbreaks of rain, perhaps heavy and thundery, but also some brighter spells.
‘Temperatures are likely to be down compared to earlier on in the weekend, although it should stay rather warm and humid, especially in the southeast.’
