Folks in Aberdeenshire, Highlands and Moray are expected to enjoy yet another weekend of sunshine, as the latest heatwave weather continues.
As the Met Office reported summer 2023 as the eighth warmest on record, the latest rise in temperatures suggests this will continue as we move into the weekend.
Most people across Grampian, the Highlands and islands should expect a sunny couple of days with scorching temperatures.
Today’s forecast is expected to be very hot with temperatures reaching as high as 27C in some parts.
Unseasonably high temperatures to hit Aberdeenshire, Moray and the Highlands
September’s warm weather continues as an active tropical cyclone season in the North Atlantic has helped to amplify temperatures in the UK.
In addition to high daytime temperatures, some areas are in for more uncomfortably warm evenings, according to the Met Office.
Saturday will have a sunny start to the day in most parts, with a cloudy spell expected in the afternoon.
