It's set to be another gorgeous weekend in Manchester as sunshine forecast

It's set to be a warm and sunny weekend in Manchester as the good weather continues.

On Saturday, April 23, temperatures will peak at 14C in the afternoon according to the Met Office, and will keep the same temperature way into the following Sunday. The sun will be out for the majority of the afternoon and early evening on both Saturday and Sunday.

According to the Met Office, the start of the weekend will see a "rather cloudy start in places but brightening up with sunny by the afternoon. Feeling warm in the sunshine but cooler when exposed to the brisk easterly winds. Maximum temperature 17 °C".

Meanwhile, the Met Office predicts that Saturday through Monday will remain "mostly dry, though with a chance of the odd shower. Often rather cloudy but some brighter periods are likely. Breezy over the weekend and turning colder by Monday."

Temperatures over Easter have remained consistently warm after a lengthy period of cold temperatures and windy conditions and while not record-breaking, it is still some of the most settled conditions that Manchester has seen in the past couple of months.

This good weather is expected to stay for the majority of spring, according to the Met Office who said: "Through the rest of the week, high pressure is likely to dominate in the north with plenty of dry weather here. Further south, a little more unsettled with a risk of some showers or longer spells of rain at times, heavy in places.

"Light winds are expected for most with breezy conditions possible at times in the south and along eastern coasts. Conditions likely to become more settled and mainly dry across the whole of the UK as
