View the weather with our interactive map
Brightening up with some warm sunshine Thursday. Argyll staying cloudy,
The cloud lifting and breaking across much of the area with bright and sunny spells developing and becoming warm. However, slower to lift and break across Argyll with early drizzle. Maximum temperature 22 °C.
Some fine evening sunshine for most but Northern Argyll probably cloudy at first with the clearer skies spreading to all areas tonight. Minimum temperature 10 °C.
Dry and becoming very warm or hot with plenty of sunshine. Light sea breezes will keep it a bit fresher around the coasts. Maximum temperature 26 °C.
The weekend will be dry with long sunny periods, and it will be hot. Chance of thundery rain on Monday.
Updated:
The heatwave from the weekend will be gradually eroded from the west early next week as a cold front arrives from the Atlantic. This will bring the chance of some heavy rain or showers, perhaps thundery, especially in northern and western areas. Towards and beyond midweek, a rather changeable pattern is anticipated with some rain or showers possible at times, which could be heavy and thundery, and particularly focussed in western and northwestern areas. Longer drier spells are most likely towards the south and east, although even here some showers may be possible at times. Temperatures are likely to remain above average, especially in the south and east where further spells of very warm or hot weather remain possible.
Updated:
A continuation of the broad themes from earlier in the month at first, with high pressure probably dominating the south and lower pressure more favoured to affect the north and northwest. Temperatures are likely to end up above average overall with a continued, and perhaps higher than normal, chance of occasional hot spells or heatwaves, especially further to the southeast. However, around the turn of the month, there is a signal for perhaps more widely unsettled weather to develop, though the details of this remain rather uncertain.
