It comes as health minister Vaughan Gething today expressed concerns over the forecasted warm weather.
At the daily Welsh Government press conference, he said: "I have very real concerns we will see the scenes in England repeated here in Wales, albeit on a smaller scale.
"People should take advantage of the extended household measures, but should not go further than that.
"Please enjoy the weather, but please do so responsibly."
