Fleet is set for a glorious weekend of sunshine with the mercury climbing to 28C on Saturday, though it will feel closer to 26C. The warm, dry spell offers a perfect window for barbecues and trips to the park before conditions turn unsettled from the start of next week.

The Met Office expects the fine weather to hold through Sunday, but the recent run of dry days will come to an abrupt halt when light rain sweeps into the area on Monday. The change marks the end of the brief taste of summer and heralds a more typical early June pattern.

Looking ahead, forecasters warn that unsettled weather is likely to dominate for the rest of the week, with further rain and cloud keeping temperatures closer to the seasonal average. Residents keen to make the most of Saturday’s heat are being urged to grab the suncream and enjoy the outdoors while it lasts.
