The UK looks set to be on the receiving end of some glorious weather next week as temperatures look likely to soar.
According to the BBC's weather forecaster Louise Lear, temperatures could get into the 30s.
Lear said: "As we go through the next few days high pressure is set to return and there will be no significant rain the forecast until we get to the following weekend."
Her words come after weather maps from WXCHARTS show that temperatures will peak on Friday (June 20).
Lear added: "As we move into Thursday we start to tap into more of an easterly feed and that will drag in more warmth coming from the near continent.
"So maybe the sunniest day of the week, the driest day of the week, we will see a lot of sunshine and warmth, temperatures in Scotland peaking at 24C, we could see 27C or 28C.
"The heat likely to peak on Friday but then we could potentially see a change as we move into the weekend as low pressure finally could bring some much welcome rain."
Meanwhile, the Met Office's forecast from June 19 to 28 reads: "Most parts of the UK are expected to be fine and dry at the start of this period, then a broad northwest to southeast split is likely to develop in late June.
"The wettest and windiest conditions are expected to be in the northwest, with spells of rain at times which may be heavy in places.
"It will likely be very warm or perhaps hot at first in the north, temperatures quickly becoming near normal or slightly above.
"More settled in the southeast with conditions drier overall, although some rain will probably spread from the west or northwest at times.
"There is also the risk that isolated heavy showers and thunderstorms could develop at times.
"Temperatures are expected to be above normal, perhaps with some hot spells in the southeast."
