Headline:

A clear and bright evening for many. Cloud thickens and lowers over the hills in the east overnight, with isolated light showers in the south later. Mild night to come. Minimum temperature 14 °C.

Isolated light showers continue to feed up from the south, but most places staying dry and seeing some bright spells into the afternoon. Staying warm and humid. Maximum temperature 24 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Changeable weather with spells of heavy rain, some thunderstorms and strong winds. Brighter intervals and scattered showers at times. Temperatures mostly near normal, feeling warm and humid in places.

An unsettled start to this period, as showers or longer spells of rain are possible across many parts of the UK. Some heavy rain is likely, perhaps with some thunderstorms too. It will likely remain changeable into early September, with rainfall amounts probably above average for the time year and the potential for some strong winds at times. However, some drier, more settled interludes could develop at times. Temperatures are likely to be near average, although some short-lived warm or hot spells are possible, especially in the south.

Most likely a continuation of the generally unsettled conditions at first with showers or longer spells of rain across many areas, perhaps heavy and thundery in places. However, there may still be some drier interludes at times. Further into September, drier weather may become more prevalent, especially in the south and southeast, with any more unsettled conditions tending to become more likely further north and northwest. Temperatures will probably be near normal at first but may become warmer later, with the possibility of some hot spells in the south.
