After weeks of Iran war headlines and oil price shocks, Britain gets a bright spell. Temperatures are forecast to climb from Thursday and peak at around 21C on Saturday across much of southern England. Weather maps from WXCharts using MetDesk data show London, the Midlands and even parts of Scotland catching warmer air. The Met Office says conditions will be largely dry with sunny periods through the week.
