Clear spells developing

This Evening and Tonight:

Any lingering cloud and rain will move away to the south this evening, leaving a dry night with light winds and clear spells. This may allow some cooler rural temperatures. Cloud thickening again around dawn. Minimum temperature 7 °C.

Wednesday:

Dry but often cloudy on Wednesday. Some brighter spells remain possible, however, where it will feel warm. Maximum temperature 20 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Fine and mostly dry through this period, with temperatures rising, becoming very warm by the end of the week. Perhaps isolated showers on Saturday.

Initially hot across eastern Britain in particular, with many areas dry although a few showers will be possible in places, perhaps thundery. Temperatures are likely to lower somewhat into next week, but still remaining very warm across parts of the east and southeast. There will also be an increasing chance of some showers or thunderstorms in southern and western areas, and perhaps some longer spells of rain in the far north. Later in the week and into the following weekend, higher pressure may become more influential, especially across central and southern areas where longer spells of dry and warm weather are most likely, whilst it remains cooler and generally more changeable farther to the northwest.

Rather changeable conditions are anticipated through the first half of July, with the wettest and windiest conditions most likely towards the northwest, with a risk of some heavy rain at times, especially over hills. Southern and eastern areas are most favoured for longer drier and more settled spells, although even here some occasional rain or showers will be possible, perhaps thundery. Temperatures are expected to be above average for most areas, especially towards the southeast where there will be an ongoing chance of some very warm or hot conditions at times.
