Temperatures are set to soar into the mid-20s in Sheffield this weekend, but a thunderstorm could bring downpours and lightning strikes to the city.

Things will start warming up on Friday, June 9, with the Met Office forecasting a high of 19C and largely sunny weather, so it should be a nice evening for the first of the Arctic Monkeys’ two big homecoming gigs at Hillsborough Park.

On Saturday, June 10, when the Arctic Monkeys play their second gig, it is likely to be considerably hotter, reaching 23C by 1pm and a high of 26C at around 4pm.
