Nottingham weather: City set for 27C and sunshine after days of torrential rain
Just in time to enjoy Nottingham Beach!
Nottingham is set for temperatures of up to 25C later this week after days of rain and chilly temperatures.
The first half of July has been cool and wet for much of the UK, with a heavy rain warning in place for Nottingham as recently as yesterday (Monday, July 15).
Experts say the poor weather has been caused by the jet stream being positioned predominantly over or to the south of the UK.
This has resulted in the country being affected by cold Arctic air.
However, current forecasts suggest some more summery weather could be on the way over the next few days.
According to BBC Weather, temperatures in Nottingham will gradually increase as the week goes on, culminating with a peak of 25C on Friday (July 19) or 27C according to the Met Office.
With 23C forecast for Wednesday (July 17), those attending the opening of Nottingham Beach will be able to enjoy Mediterranean-like conditions.
Over the weekend temperatures will return to around 19C, with rain showers also forecast.
