Warm weekend weather in Scotland could break February records
The warm, sunny weather will contrast with the same time last year, when Scotland was braced for the arrival of the Beast from the East, which hit at the start of March.
This year, temperatures may be close to beating the February record of 17.9C (64.2F), as the forecast is for 16C (60.8F) on Saturday.

The start of the week is predicted to be changeable with some cloud, before pressure builds, turning the weather “increasingly bright and sunny” for the weekend.
The Met Office online forecast says “dry and sunny weather will dominate” during the latter half of the week and temperatures will become “very mild”.
