Temperatures across the BCP area are expected to reach highs of 25C this weekend as a mini-heatwave is predicted for some parts of the UK.

This comes after well above-average rainfall figures in the first half of July, with Dorset having 120% of its monthly average already.

These sorts of temperatures will likely be short-lived though, as it is set to become milder from Sunday (July 21).

Here is what is currently predicted by the Met Office for Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole for the rest of this week.
