Birmingham weather: hottest day so far - but how long will it last?

As we move into the week, we can expect to see sunny skies across the West Midlands, with just a small chance of rain across most areas - temperatures are likely to be somewhere between 17 and 19 degrees.

Then moving on to Thursday, it looks as though we can expect there to be patchy rain almost everywhere across the region, except in Wolverhampton and Redditch, with temperatures reaching somewhere around 17 degrees.

Moving towards the weekend, on Friday, we should more than likely see somewhat cloudy skies, without any likelihood of rain, and temperatures should be somewhere around 16 degrees.

Then on Saturday, more cloudy skies, no chance of rain with temperatures of around 15 degrees, then Sunday - we should see clear skies, only a small chance of rain and temperatures should likely be somewhere around 17 degrees.
