Warmer weather is finally on its way to Swindon just in time for the extended Easter weekend.
According to the Met Office Swindon can expect temperatures to hit double figures throughout the weekend reaching highs of 15C.
Speaking on the UK forecast, the Met Office’s deputy chief meteorologist, Helen Caughey, said: “It will be drier by the start of the Easter break, with bright, clear spells and light winds in most places.
“Although there will be some chilly nights it will be pleasant by day with sunny spells and some light winds, though on paper temperatures will be around average for the time of year.
“While there is still some uncertainty in the detailed forecast for Easter Sunday and Monday the general trend is for fine weather in the south and east while it looks like it could turn more unsettled in the north and west. Fairly typical spring weather for us.”
