All the best splash parks nearby as the region braces for heat wave

The Met Office forecast for the Black Country for the next few days promises plenty of sunny spells and much warmer weather than we’ve had – today, we’ll see highs of 23C (73.4F) and a warm night with a low of 12C ( 53, 6F).

Temperatures are expected to reach 28 degrees on Friday.

In those temperatures, running in an outdoor water park seems like the right thing to do. Luckily, we have some great parks and splash zones nearby.

Don’t forget the sun cream!
