Hopefully this predicted warm spell will properly come off, unlike the others recently! I know Scotland reached 20.7C on Monday but, like most of the UK, I'm still waiting to get near that (max I've had so far is 17.5C).
From my point of view, current forecast temps for Chelmsford on Friday are:
19C - WeatherPro, Metcheck BBC (TV) and ITV (TV)
17C - Metcheck, BBC (online) and EssexWeather (but they tweeted that 19/20C is possible somewhere in Essex).
Bit of variation so it'll be interesting to see how those forecast temps vary in the coming days and who gets it right.
