The high pressure that is now sliding in comes from the south and during Thursday the mercury reaches over 25 degrees in most places in Skåne.

- It can even be closer to 30 degrees in some places, says Pererik Åberg, meteorologist at SVT.

Nice this weekend

And Thursday's beautiful and warm weather continues even this weekend. The winds will be weak and not give much cooling effect on sunbathers.

- There will be no risk of rain until the beginning of next week, says Pererik Åberg.

The highest temperature so far for this summer was measured in June when Halland's weather island had 30.0 degrees and Lund 29.6 degrees.

- We can probably beat those numbers in the days to come, says Pererik Åberg.

High fire risk

But with the heat also comes an increasing risk of fires.

- There is an extremely large fire risk in Skåne right now, it is very dry in the ground, says Pererik Åberg.
