THE MET Office are advising of a potential heatwave for parts of the UK this bank holiday weekend, but what can we expect in Gwent?

The forecasters have said that temperatures could reach 26 degrees over the bank holiday weekend.

After a month of grey skies and wet weather, part of the UK will enjoy periods of warm sunshine due to “dominating” levels of high pressure.

And while we won't be quite blessed with those highs in Gwent, there is still a chance to enjoy the three-day weekend outdoors.

The best of the weekend's weather will be found in Monmouth, according to the Met Office, with highs of 21 degrees and consistent sunshine.
