The Roaches (Staffordshire) weather

Headline:

Sunny spells but turning hotter into the weekend.

Today:

A grey and potentially murky start, however cloud will gradually thin and break up allowing skies to brighten. Some sunny spells developing during the afternoon, especially in the southeast. Feeling warm in the prolonged sunny spells. Maximum temperature 25 °C.

Tonight:

A dry night to come with clear skies in the southeast and some patchy cloud in the west and north. Mild for most places and can feel muggy. Minimum temperature 15 °C.

Friday:

Any cloud in the west and north will lift and break through the morning, bringing bright and sunny spells for most places. Feeling very warm in the sunshine. Maximum temperature 26 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Turning more settled into the weekend as high pressure starts to build from the south. Sunny spells and feeling very warm with temperatures well above the June average.

Probably a north-south split at the start of this period. Many areas in the south will be mainly fine and dry with temperatures well above normal, albeit with a small risk of a few showers or thunderstorms at times. In the north, changeable with some showers or spells of rain, perhaps heavy at times, and temperatures near normal, although with drier, brighter periods also. Into late June, high pressure may begin to build with conditions becoming more widely dry and settled. Temperatures are likely to be above normal for many areas.

High pressure patterns are slightly more likely than low pressure patterns during this period, meaning settled and drier than average conditions are most probable. However, there is still a chance of some changeable, more unsettled conditions could develop at times, and 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.
