Sheffield weather: This is when forecasters believe city's heatwave will end

After a week of glorious sunshine in Sheffield, with temperatures exceeding 25C, this is when forecasters expect the heatwave will come to an end.

Much like the way it began, the final week of April 2025 was a scorcher - with high pressure bringing sunny skies and well-above average temperatures to Sheffield.

Met Office forecasters, however, are now predicting that we are set to swap above-average temperatures for below-average ones, as we move towards the Early May bank holiday.
