Westray Airfield weather map
View the weather with our interactive map
Mainly dry, some bright or sunny intervals. Rain in evening.
A mainly dry day with bright or sunny spells. Shetland starting sunny then cloud increasing from west. Orkney cloudy at first then brightening. Light winds turn southwesterly later. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
Cloud and outbreaks of rain over Orkney soon spread east over Shetland through the evening with some areas of haar. Staying cloudy overnight with mist or light drizzle at times. Minimum temperature 12 °C.
Cloudy morning with some mist or light drizzle at times. Perhaps brighter for a time around midday, before further cloud, rain and areas of haar through the afternoon and evening. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
Staying cloudy with mist or drizzle and occasional haar on Thursday with occasionally fresh southwest winds. Becoming brighter and warmer through Friday and Saturday as winds back more southerly.
Updated:
Settled at first, with very warm or hot weather quite widely across the UK. There is a small chance of a few thunderstorms, but most areas will likely be dry. Early next week, a transition to less hot conditions is expected, but with uncertain timing. This could bring an increasing chance of some rain or showers, perhaps thundery, but there is scope for very warm or hot conditions to persist in more eastern and southern areas. Beyond midweek, a rather changeable pattern is anticipated with some rain or showers possible at times, which could be heavy and thundery, but interspersed with drier interludes. Whilst a downward trend in temperature is anticipated, it will still likely be warmer than average, especially in the south and east where hot spells 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.
