Hartley (Kent) weather

Headline:

Dry, warm and muggy night

This Evening and Tonight:

A largely fine end to the day, with bright or sunny spells. Leading into a dry, warm and muggy night with variable amounts of cloud, clear spells and light winds. Perhaps becoming mostly cloudy towards dawn. Minimum temperature 15 °C.

Thursday:

A cloudy start with some drizzle, especially along southern coastal districts and hills. Becoming drier and brighter in the afternoon. Very warm and humid. Chance of isolated thunderstorms by evening. Maximum temperature 28 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Mostly fine with some sunshine. Turning very warm or locally hot, and feeling humid towards the weekend. Staying mainly dry, but with a small chance of thunderstorms.

Probably a north-south split at the start of this period. In the north, changeable and often rather cloudy with showers or some longer spells of rain, perhaps heavy at times, and temperatures near normal. In the south, mainly fine and dry with temperatures well above normal, albeit with a small risk of a few showers or thunderstorms at times. Into late June, high pressure may begin to build with conditions becoming more widely dry and settled. Temperatures are likely to be above normal for many areas.

High pressure patterns are slightly more likely than low pressure patterns during this period, meaning settled and drier than average conditions are most probable. However, there is still a chance of some changeable, more unsettled conditions could develop at times, and a risk of some heavy and thundery showers. Temperatures are likely to be above normal, with a greater than normal chance of hot conditions developing.
