THIS week, Gwent has been bathed in sunshine – and that looks to continue into the weekend.

Gwent residents should dig out the sun tan lotion and clean off the barbecues, as the Met Office has forecast “warm sunshine” across the region over the weekend.  

“The dry, settled weather continues into the weekend, with some warm sunshine by day and some chilly nights,” read the forecast. “A little cooler and perhaps cloudier on Monday, but staying dry.”

Here’s a round-up of the forecast across the Gwent region, and for Sunday morning’s Cardiff Half Marathon.
