Rowardennan Youth Hostel (Stirling) weather

Headline:

Early rain. Brighter spells developing.

Today:

Cloudy with outbreaks of rain this morning, occasionally heavy, with mist and low cloud around some North Sea coasts. Becoming mainly dry with bright spells this afternoon, feeling warm or very warm in any sunshine. Maximum temperature 23 °C.

Tonight:

Mainly dry in the east with the cloud well broken at times. However, rain is possible, the rain mainly through the Trossachs and west. Breezy and very mild. Minimum temperature 14 °C.

Wednesday:

Cloudy or bright with outbreaks of rain at times. The odd heavier burst possible and winds mostly light. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Bright spells and showers, some of the showers heavy. A more organised band of heavy and perhaps thundery rain could cross from the west on Thursday.

Mostly dry away from the north and northwest initially, where scattered showers are expected. There is a chance that some other western parts could see some rain by the end of the weekend. Temperatures ranging from around average in the NW to warm in the southeast, perhaps becoming very warm in the southeast through the weekend. It will probably become more changeable thereafter, with potential for an area of low pressure to move close to or across the UK early in August. This could bring spells of heavy rain and perhaps some strong winds for some areas. It may become more settled again towards the end of the first week of August.

Dry and settled conditions will probably dominate much of this period with high pressure patterns tending to affect the UK. This may be interrupted at times by Atlantic frontal systems, especially in the north, or thunderstorms in the south. However, overall rainfall amounts will likely be below normal. Temperatures will probably be above normal and some spells of hot weather and heatwaves are possible, especially in the south.
