BRITAIN will sizzle in a 22C scorcher tomorrow as a mini-heatwave is expected to sweep the country.
And weather forecasters predict temperatures will continue increasing throughout the week leading up to Wednesday - the hottest of the week at 24C.
Met Office maps for the week ahead show temperatures soaring into the 20s this week, with the area between Glasgow and Edinburgh seeing highs of 23C.
The east of England will be a little cooler with highs of only 14C-16C, but skies should be clear and bright.
Londoners will be feeling the heat too though as they see the mercury creeping into the 20s.
Meteorologist Craig Snell told The Sun Online: "We're going to be expecting very dry weather with plenty of sun within the next three days.
"The temperature will peak on Wednesday, reaching 24C in parts of Scotland and northern England.
"We're going to see some rain creep in the the second half of the week, as temperatures will begin to settle down on Friday."
But the Met Office’s Sophie Yeomans urged people to “make the most” of the sunshine - as temperatures will dip back down at the end of week.
She said: “We are expecting another couple of days of sunny weather and light winds, which will push temperatures up through the week."
Met Office meteorologist, Alex Burkill, told Sun Online: "We're going to be expecting a largely fine week ahead of us.
"Temperatures are going to be increasing and we're going to see a high of 24C in some parts of the country.
"The heat will be coming from the south east, meaning that some parts of the country might be experiencing slightly frostier temperatures."
According to the Met Office, Tuesday will see high pressure drift further eastwards.
It means for a lot of us it will be sunny weather by day - but we will have chilly nights.
In Glasgow, it's likely that we will see temperatures of 22C and Wednesday is likely to be the warmest day across the country.
