A cloudy start with,a little light rain in northwest. Otherwise a dry day and brightening up with sunny spells. Cloud thickening again towards evening. Warmer. Maximum temperature 22 °C.
A dry evening with cloud breaking up again for a time tonight. Then cloudier with some light rain spreading east in the early hours. Becoming breezy, mild. Minimum temperature 13 °C.
Cloud soon breaking up to bring a bright day with some sunny interludes. One or two light showers are possible. Moderate southwesterly winds at first easing. Maximum temperature 20 °C.
There will be a good deal of dry weather with some sunny spells on each day. WInds turning light and becoming warmer. Perhaps the odd shower on Friday
Updated:
Very warm or hot conditions will likely be the focus of the weather over the weekend and into the start of next week. Temperatures could remain in the low thirties of Celsius across parts of England, with a small chance of approaching mid thirties in some places. Heatwave thresholds may continue to be exceeded across parts of the UK at first. Temperatures overnight will also be very warm and perhaps humid for much of the UK. Across the west of the British Isles, cloudier conditions could bring showers with the odd lightning flash. Winds will also be light for most, and moderate around coasts further west. From early mid week, signs are the heat will ease, with rain and showers, and less hot conditions, perhaps moving in from the west.
Updated:
A broad northwest to southeast split is likely during this period. The wettest and windiest conditions are expected to be in the northwest, with a risk of some heavy rain at times. More settled in the southeast with conditions drier overall, although some rain may spread across from the north or west at times and there is a risk of isolated heavy showers and thunderstorms as well. Temperatures are expected to be near to or above normal, perhaps with some hot spells in the southeast.
