In Maidstone there are highs of 14C but some weather apps predict this could even reach 16C.

Those in Canterbury, Rochester and Dartford will see maximum temperatures of 14C tomorrow and 13C on Sunday.

In Dover, temperatures will peak at 12C, and in Ashford, 13C.

There could still be some patches of rain but this is expected to clear up by Tuesday when temperatures become 'very mild', particularly for those in the east of the county.

Spring officially starts on March 20.

It comes after temperatures plummeted to -7C last week when Kent was covered in sheets of snow and ice.

It was the coldest weather recorded since the Beast from the East made an appearance at the turn of February in 2018.
