Avebury (Wiltshire) weather

Headline:

Heatwave continues, with a risk of thundery showers later.

This Evening and Tonight:

Remaining fine and dry this evening with plenty of late sunshine. Little change overnight with largely clear skies, but still a notable easterly breeze towards the south. Minimum temperature 17 °C.

Wednesday:

Another largely dry and sunny day across the region. A very small chance of the odd thunderstorm developing later, mainly towards Cornwall. Feeling very warm. Maximum temperature 29 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Remaining largely dry and settled throughout. A small chance of the odd thundery shower Thursday, but most will avoid them. Very warm initially but turning less warm by Saturday.

Remaining predominantly dry for most parts of the country as high pressure is likely to remain close to the UK for much of this period. However, with the source region of the air being from the North Atlantic, it will be somewhat less hot compared to many recent days. Any showers during the start of the period are more likely across the far north. Towards the latter part of July, the influence of high pressure may wane somewhat, allowing a greater chance of rain, showers or thunderstorms compared to earlier in the month. Overall, temperatures are expected to remain above average during this period.

Perhaps a somewhat more changeable period, with the potential for showers or thunderstorms or even some longer spells of rain at times. Drier and brighter interludes are also likely, perhaps more likely across the south and southeast. Temperatures are likely to be above normal with some hot spells possible.
