Earlier this week, the weather forecaster wrote: “What a shocker this May has been so far – but finally our fortunes may be about to change, with warmer weather on the horizon.
“The big question is: just how warm could it get? Scotland has endured plenty of showers over the past week, with temperatures dropping under a cool northerly airflow.
“In some places, afternoon highs have struggled to get much above eight degrees – well below what you’d normally expect for mid-May.
“A lot of hope is usually pinned on May because, more often than not, it’s one of the most reliable months for decent weather.
“This year, though, has been a real exception, and we desperately need something to rescue May 2026 from ending up in the bin of disappointing weather months.”
He continued: “Next week should bring a notable rise in temperatures, potentially delivering the warmest weather we’ve seen so far this year.”
The Met Office is urging Glaswegians to take care during midday hours and not to spend too much time in the sun unprotected, with sunscreen advised.
