Sunshine and showers for today.

Today:

Spells of locally heavy rain across the east early morning. Otherwise a mix of sunshine and showers, with some outbreaks turning heavy, chiefly late morning and early afternoon, bringing a small risk of thunderstorms. Maximum temperature 20 °C.

Tonight:

Scattered showers dying out from the east through the evening to leave all dry with clear spells overnight, as west to southwest winds ease light. Minimum temperature 9 °C.

Sunday:

The vast majority will enjoy a fine, dry day with good sunny spells, light winds and seasonally warm afternoon highs. Patchy rain feeding from the west overnight. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

East mainly dry and warm Monday, while west sees some patchy rain. Warm to hot Tuesday with brighter spells and isolated showers. Wednesday warm to hot, mainly dry, occasionally bright.

A changeable pattern across northwestern areas of the UK at first with spells of rain interspersed with drier interludes. Further southeast, predominantly fine, with a spell of hot weather breaking at the start of this period. Much of England could still see warm or very warm temperatures for at least a couple of days and there is a possibility that the heat could last further into the week, especially in the south, where there is also the possibility of some thunderstorms. Beyond this, probably a resumption of widely somewhat fresher conditions, with a lot of dry weather to be had in the south under the influence of high pressure. Meanwhile a rather more changeable and breezier theme will continue further to the north but it may become increasingly settled.

High pressure, and therefore largely settled conditions overall, appears more likely at first. Although dry weather is likely to dominate, periods of rain or showers and thunderstorms may develop at times. Above average temperatures overall seem most likely, with the potential for further hot spells to develop, especially in the east and south. By the turn of the month, there are signals for high pressure to become less dominant with perhaps a greater chance of some rain, though there is some uncertainty in this aspect of the forecast.
