BRITAIN will be hotter than Barcelona with a 21C scorcher today – but snow could fall in days.
The glorious weather will also be mostly dry, clear and sunny after a frosty start in comparison to the Spanish city’s highs of 16C.
It comes after temperatures reached 20.5C yesterday as daytime temperatures soared 10C above the March average.
BBC Weather forecaster Ben Rich said: “It is another beautiful spring day with lengthy sunshine and the vast majority will stay dry.
“There is just a small chance of one or two showers popping up in north east Scotland and maybe in the eastern counties of England.
“It will not be as breezy as it was on Tuesday across western areas but it is every bit as warm.”
