"SPRING weather" will return to Derbyshire this weekend, according to the Met Office.
Average temperatures of 20C have been forecast for Saturday and 18C on Sunday - above the 13C average for this time of year.
However, the forecaster warned Hurricane Gonzalo, which is making its way across the Atlantic, will mean increased wind speed this weekend and on Monday.
He said there will be highs of 17C from 1pm until around 6pm today.
He said: "Saturday looks like it will be a good day, although it will be quite windy. It's likely to get up to 35mph, although that is nothing exceptional for this time of the year.
"To have 20C is excellent and well above average, it will feel much more like spring.
"Sunday will also stay mild, slightly cooler at 18C, but the winds will stay.
"Looking ahead to Monday, there could be around three hours of heavy rain which will come from Gonzalo, although it will be unlikely to hit the country directly."
