With temperatures expected to rise in the city later this week, it will mean Glasgow will almost be as warm as Tenerife in Spain. 

On Friday, Tenerife will bask in hot sunshine, with temperatures expected to hit highs of 32 degrees.

The Met Office is then predicting a cooler day at the Spanish holiday hotspot on Saturday, with temperatures decreasing slightly to highs of 30 degrees.

It comes after a heatwave hit the city in early June.

We reported how Glasgow was almost as warm as Ibiza on Tuesday, June 10 and Wednesday, June 11.
