A dry day. A sunny start in west but cloud in east pushing west during morning, then breaking up to allow some sunny intervals again. Maximum temperature 22 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

It will be a dry few days with variable cloud and some sunny spells. Mainly light winds, and on the warm side.

Initially predominantly dry with large sunny spells away from the northwest where cooler, cloudier and wetter conditions are most likely. Though there will be a few isolated showers further south at times. Becoming very warm again in parts of the south before the weekend introduces a more widely unsettled and showery period including risk of thunderstorms - though still some good sunny spells and temperatures around or just above average for most. Toward the end of the month uncertainty increases, but potentially returning to a drier, settled and warm period, in the south especially.

Perhaps a somewhat more changeable period, with the potential for showers or thunderstorms or even some longer spells of rain at times, these most likely to the north. Drier and brighter interludes are also likely, perhaps more likely across the south and southeast. Temperatures are likely to be above normal with some hot spells possible.
