This summer could be the hottest ever, the Met Office has predicted.
Britain could have three boiling summer months, and there is a 25 per cent chance of temperatures making the record books.
The three-month outlook for June to August has revealed we are likely to see temperatures close to or above average over the summer.
After today, forecasters predict most areas across the country will have warm sunshine - with only the north west likely to experience showers.
The Met Office website said: "From mid June to early July, the indications are that the weather will be close to what is climatologically normal for this time of year - giving us a tendency for occasional spells of unsettled weather interspersed with fine and warm spells, much as we have seen recently."
The warmest ever summer in history was in 2006, when the average temperature across day and night was 15.78C. Average temperatures of around 15.25C have been forecast for this summer.For the latest Nottingham weather, click here.
