Ballynahinch (County Down) weather

Headline:

Mainly dry with some hot sunny spells.

Today:

Another mainly dry day with some long spells of hot or very hot sunshine, although coasts a little cooler with onshore breezes developing. Risk of the odd shower developing later in the afternoon. Maximum temperature 29 °C.

Tonight:

A largely fine end to the day with some late sunshine but an increasing risk of showers overnight, perhaps occasionally heavy and thundery towards the end of the night. Minimum temperature 13 °C.

Friday:

A rather cloudy morning with some showery, perhaps thundery, rain around. Becoming brighter from the south through the afternoon but still some showers around. A little cooler than recently. Maximum temperature 26 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Dry, bright start Saturday but occasionally heavy rain spreads east in afternoon. Sunday and Monday look much cooler with sunny spells and showers and an occasionally fresh southwesterly breeze.

Fairly changeable conditions at first with periods of rain and showers, and there could be some thundery outbreaks at times. The best of the drier and brighter weather initially will be across the southeast. Then perhaps a drier start to July for many, although the northwest may still see some rain at times, and perhaps accompanied by some strong winds. Temperatures remain widely above average, and there remains a chance of some very warm or hot weather returning, mainly across the south.

High pressure patterns are looking slightly more likely than low pressure patterns during the early part of this period, meaning a greater chance of settled and drier than average conditions. There is still a chance of some changeable or more unsettled conditions developing later in the period, with a risk of some heavy and thundery showers. Temperatures are likely to be above normal, with a greater than normal chance of hot conditions developing at times.
