Springholm (Dumfries and Galloway) weather

Headline:

Dry, sunny and warm.

Today:

Any mist patches quickly dispersing to leave a dry day with plenty of sunshine. Warm inland but onshore breezes keeping east coast cooler and perhaps some lower cloud affecting the East Lothian coast by the end of the afternoon. Maximum temperature 26 °C.

Tonight:

Low cloud is likely to form around eastern coastal areas during the evening, elsewhere a clear and dry evening. East coast cloud pushing further inland overnight with some drizzle possible. Minimum temperature 13 °C.

Monday:

A cloudy start in the east but cloud burning back towards coastal areas. Sunny conditions all day further inland. Maximum temperature 24 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

High pressure is expected to remain over the area but low cloud will affect the whole area with some drizzle at times. Brighter for all on Wednesday and Thursday.

High pressure is likely to be the dominant feature at first, initially centred near to Iceland, allowing a north to northeasterly airstream to affect much of the UK, leading to rather cool conditions. High pressure is likely to progress SE across the UK for a time, bringing widely fine and dry conditions and for some, an increase in temperatures, relative to the previous few days. Whilst this is happening a deep area of low pressure is likely to develop in the North Atlantic, linked to Tropical Storm Erin. The final week of August may see Atlantic weather systems progress over the UK, especially in the north and west, with a small chance of widely wetter and windier weather developing. The evolution of this is highly uncertain though.

Confidence in the details through this period is low. However, low pressure and therefore unsettled or changeable weather looks more likely, and with this comes the potential for stronger winds at times as well. Whether this takes the form of further low pressure systems running in from the Atlantic, or a rather more slowly evolving weather pattern with the potential for heavy showers is less clear. Temperatures are likely be near to above average overall.
