April weather set to break record
UK Met Office figures indicate this month will be the warmest April in England for more than 300 years. This series, which dates back to 1659, is the world's longest running temperature series. ... Meteorologists say in addition, the 12-month rolling period ending in April 2007 is also set to be the warmest on record - nearly 2C above the long-term average for the period.

Wales is also likely to set a new high. The provisional mean temperature for the month is 9.7C (49.5F), 2.5C (4.5F) above the 30-year average for April.

The current spell of warm weather, set to continue across the weekend, has prompted the Department for Environment, Food and Agriculture (Defra) to issue its first “summer smog” warning for 2007.
