Spring is hitting the East with full force this weekend with temperatures expecting to reach the mid teens.

Weather experts are predicting highs of 15C (59F), which could be warmer than some East Mediterranean countries.

Jim Bacon, forecaster at Weatherquest, said we could see some cloud and breeze, especially along the coast, with the possibility of light rain on Saturday evening.

He said overnight temperatures were expected to stay mild, dipping to 3C (37.4F) – 6C (42.8F), depending on the cloud.

But make the most of the sunshine because temperatures are set to fall on Sunday with a chance of an overnight frost coming into the start of next week, Mr Bacon said.
