The Met Office NI forecast states: “Wednesday brings another dry, sunny and very warm day.”
From tomorrow to Saturday, the forecasters said it will be “very warm or hot with plenty of sunshine”.
A spokesperson for NI Water said that although a hosepipe ban is not being considered at the minute, people should “use water wisely” during this warm spell.

“At this point in time, NI Water is not introducing a hosepipe ban. The situation is however being closely monitored and if storage reduces significantly or demand became excessive, NI Water would have to consider the possibility of putting in place measures in order to protect water supplies.”
However, once again, the Province is avoiding the oppressively high temperatures being experienced across the south of England and in Wales where an amber extreme heat warning is in place.
Temperatures are likely to rise into the low-to-mid 30s Celsius for those within the warning area. However, temperatures are not expected to be as extreme as those experienced in July when new national records were set.
