Watford and the surrounding areas are finally set to see temperatures soar as the last few weeks' miserable conditions blow over.

Tomorrow is set to stay around 13C with patches of rain and sun before the mercury jumps to 16C for Tuesday and Wednesday with cloud and sun forecast.

But from Thursday we are set to see 19C conditions with sun and cloud, rising to 20C with the same outlook throughout the Bank Holiday Weekend.

The warmer conditions are set to stay with nothing less than 19C and sunny spells predicted for any day next week.

Early signs, according to BBC Weather, are that the following weekend could be as hot as 21C with more sun.

It comes after weeks of disrupted weather, with 50mph winds and heavy rain lashing Hertfordshire last week.

April was also the third coldest on record, with the early May Bank Holiday being the coldest ever.
