Overnight low cloud and fog clearing on Tuesday.
Low cloud clearing during the morning. A very warm day follows with plenty of strong sunshine, though cloud may push into the far north. Light winds. Maximum temperature 24 °C.
Some patchy cloud in the north but clearer in the south. Mist and fog may develop in places. Light winds and feeling mild. Minimum temperature 16 °C.
Any mist and fog will lift quickly, leaving a bright and sunny day for all. Feeling hot in the strong sunshine, especially in the east. Maximum temperature 30 °C.
A fine few days to come with spells of strong sunshine. Temperatures climbing and starting to feel increasingly hot. Staying dry with light winds.
Updated:
Southern areas are likely to start this period hot, with heatwave conditions persisting. To the north, an Atlantic frontal zone will introduce somewhat cooler conditions, with the potential for scattered thunderstorms to develop just ahead of this. Into the following week, high pressure is likely to build to the north or northwest of the UK, though its exact orientation is rather more uncertain. This would bring a lot of dry weather for many areas, though perhaps an increased chance, relatively to previous days, of showers or thunderstorms in the south. Temperatures probably moderating a little, though remaining above average for many areas.
Updated:
High pressure is more likely than low pressure for the rest of July, probably bringing settled and drier conditions. Occasionally this dry and warm weather could be interrupted by outbreaks of rain and stronger winds, which will be more probable in the north or west. As is typical for the time of year, there is a risk of heavy, thundery showers during any warm spells. These conditions are likely to persist through to the start of August, with unsettled interruptions perhaps becoming more common, but confidence at this range is low. In any case, temperatures are likely to be above average overall, with a greater than normal chance of hot conditions developing at times, especially in the south.
