Britain’s beauty spots prepare for influx of visitors before temperatures plunge next week
Police forces across the UK have warned people to avoid large gatherings and abide by the Covid travel restrictions that remain in place, after dry and sunny weather was forecast for much of the country over the Easter weekend.
The Met Office said conditions would be mild for most of the weekend, with highs of 14C (57F) on Sunday. Police were preparing for an influx of visitors to beauty spots but temperatures are likely to plunge and could bring snow on Monday, prompting concerns that the arctic chill could tempt people to meet inside, which is still banned under coronavirus restrictions.
