RECORD-high temperatures are set to be replaced by cooler weather this week.
Easter weekend was one of the warmest in recent years, with Saturday bringing 2019s hottest day so far as temperatures touched 24°C in some places.
Boltonians are set to enjoy another warm day today with highs of 20°C and the sky expected to stay clear throughout.
However, this will change as the week progresses and forecasters expect rain on Wednesday, beginning around midday and continuing into the night.
Thursday and Friday will be similar as Met Office forecasters predict long periods of wet weather and temperatures dropping to around 13°C, with lows of 9°C.
By the weekend, forecasters expect temperatures to have dropped significantly. It could get as cold as 5°C on Saturday, especially during mid-morning.
Heavier rain is also forecast during the weekend, with intermittent light rain around midday on Saturday eventually giving way to heavier showers by Sunday afternoon.
