View the weather with our interactive map
Some heavy showers on Thursday, dry and bright on Friday.
A dry and bright start with sunny spells, but cloud will build through the morning, bringing scattered showers. Some of these will turn heavy and potentially thundery in the afternoon. Warm. Maximum temperature 20 °C.
Showers will merge into light rain during the evening, clearing south later. The second half of the night will be mostly dry with a few clear spells developing. Minimum temperature 12 °C.
A dry start with sunny spells followed by cloudier skies. Staying dry with gentle winds, although the odd shower cannot be ruled out over high ground. Cloud breaking up late. Maximum temperature 20 °C.
Dry with light winds and sunny spells on Saturday. Heavy rain spreading east on Sunday, dry but windy in the afternoon. Unseasonably windy on Monday, with heavy rain and showers.
Updated:
An unseasonably deep area of low pressure clearing to the east, may bring widely windy and wet weather at first, especially for the north or northeast of the UK. Following this will be a breezy but sunny day for most with a risk of showers in the north. The forecast around this is rather uncertain, however, and it is also possible that it will clear more quickly. Following this, a continuation of the broadly changeable pattern is expected, with spells of rain or showers, some drier, brighter interludes and temperatures mainly near average. As we move towards mid-month, there is an increased chance of high pressure becoming more dominant, leading to drier, warmer and more settled conditions becoming more widespread.
Updated:
High pressure, and therefore fairly settled conditions overall, appears most likely for the second half of August, though the northwest may see more in the way of occasional rain than other areas. For most, predominantly dry weather is likely to continue, although short periods of showers and thunderstorms cannot be ruled out. Above average temperatures overall seem most likely, with the potential for hot spells to develop, especially in the east and south, these more probable further into August.
