Sunny and generally very hot, locally exceptionally hot across western areas. The east or southeast breeze will keep many coastal areas cooler than inland. Maximum temperature 37 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Hot or very hot Friday, thereafter temperatures decreasing. Bright or sunny spells Friday and Saturday, chance of thunderstorms, mainly Saturday night. Cloudier Sunday, patchy light rain possible.

Fairly changeable conditions at first with periods of rain and showers, and there could be some thundery outbreaks at times. 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.
