Yorkshire weather forecast: Temperature set to peak at 27 as warm weather continues

Yorkshire is set for another stunning weekend as the temperature climbs even higher.

With most of the country on tenterhooks ahead of England's opening Euro 2020 this weekend, you could be forgiven for staying inside and watching the match on TV.

But it's likely to be BBQs aplenty as Sunday could be the hottest day of the year so far in Yorkshire - with the temperature set to hit 27 degrees.

The Met Office forecast for the weekend says: "Cool start in places (on Saturday), then soon warming up to become a fine day with patchy cloud but also long spells of strong sunshine and light winds. However, along the coast it will be cooler as light onshore breezes develop. Largely sunny this evening, and clear for much of the night, although thin high cloud is likely to arrive later.
