Weather: Britain's long hot summer is set to carry on
BRITAIN’S long hot summer is set to carry on.
There is no sign of downpours on the horizon, and it will stay mainly dry right the way through to autumn, experts said last night.
They forecast some sun for all parts of the UK this week – great news for families starting their summer holidays and for beachgoers such as Plechette Molyneux, 18, and Natalie Roberts, 19, seen topping up their tans at Southsea, Hants.
Temperatures will reach 26C in parts of the South-east by mid-week, and the low 20s everywhere else, according to the Met Office.
Long-range forecasts predict just six or seven days of rain for the entire month of August.
