Warm and humid with plenty of late sunshine. Remaining settled overnight though cloudier skies spilling in from the west may bring a few spots of rain and drizzle at times. Minimum temperature 17 °C.

Tuesday:

Cooler than recent days for many with cloudier skies bringing a few outbreaks of rain at times. Still rather warm in the far east. Winds remaining light. Maximum temperature 28 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Fresher for all, with cloudier skies bringing spells of rain, these sometimes heavy on Wednesday and Thursday, but some drier, brighter intervals as well. Temperatures near or slightly above average.

Residual rain clearing the southeast, if it hasn't done before this time, with widely fine and much fresher and cooler conditions than of late. Perhaps turning wetter and windier in the northwest though, with more unsettled conditions spreading across the UK through the coming weekend. Not everywhere will see rain or showers, and there will be some brighter, more shower weather too, particularly on Sunday where there is a risk of thunderstorms. Following this, more changeable weather is expected with winds mainly from the west, leading to a typical northwest-southeast split whereby rain and showesr are most frequent in the north and west, whilst south and eastern areas are more often dry, bright and warmer.

Changeable conditions are most likely through the middle part of the month, with showers or longer spells of rain, but also some drier, brighter interludes. Areas towards the northwest are more likely to see the wettest conditions, whereas those towards the southeast stand a greater chance of longer drier periods. However, there is also the chance of occasional thundery outbreaks, which could bring heavy rainfall to any part of the UK. There are hints that more widely drier conditions may develop by the latter part of the month. Overall, temperatures are forecast to be above average, with the greatest chance of very warm or hot spells in the south or southeast.
