There is set to be plenty of sunshine in Merseyside today. People heading out for Mother’s Day today, Sunday, March 30, are set to have a bright day.
The Met Office said it is set to feel “pleasant in the sunshine”, with temperatures reaching highs of 13C and lows of 8C. It is set to turn slightly cloudy in the evening. However, Liverpool is set to be hotter than Ibiza next week according to the latest forecast from the Met Office.
Temperatures are set to soar into the low 20s through the middle of next week. Going into the new week, temperatures will be getting much warmer. On Monday, March 31, it’s forecast to be overcast as temperatures reach 17C before the clouds clear and the sun shines down on Tuesday, with temperatures reaching 19C.
Wednesday and Thursday will see temperatures reach 20C and sun throughout the day, with Ibiza only seeing temperatures reaching 17C. The Met Office said for Sunday to Tuesday: “Largely dry through the period with variable amounts of cloud and sunny intervals.
“Rain and drizzle possible at times over the hills. Feeling pleasant in the sunshine with winds easing.” In a long-range forecast, the Met Office said: “From the start of April, settled weather is expected to cover much of the UK. Most places are expected to be dry with clear or sunny spells and light winds. Inland areas will see a general day-on-day warming next week.
“It will probably remain slightly cooler near coastal areas, with an additional risk of mist or sea fog affecting parts of the east coast. There is a chance for more unsettled and perhaps cooler weather for a time.
”However the main signal is for dry and fine weather across the country during this period. Temperatures will likely be around or above normal and feeling warm during the day, and some cold nights are still possible when skies are clear.”
As well as sunny weather throughout the weekend, there will also be a partial solar eclipse visible. The phenomenon occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth. The three will not be completely aligned, meaning only part of the Sun will be obscured.
The eclipse is expected to be visible in the UK from 9.56am to 12.14pm on Saturday, with the peak in London at around 11.03am. Those in northern parts of Scotland – which on a clear day would be one of the best places for viewing the eclipse – may be left disappointed due to cloud cover.
