Levington (Suffolk) weather

Headline:

Dry overnight with heat building again next week.

This Evening and Tonight:

A warm evening with plenty of late sunshine. Staying largely dry overnight although the odd light shower can't be entirely ruled out. Warmer than recent nights. Minimum temperature 14 °C.

Sunday:

Small chance of a brief light shower first thing but otherwise another dry day is expected with prolonged periods of strong sunshine. Warmer than on Saturday, perhaps hot for some. Maximum temperature 31 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Some patchy cloud at first Monday and also less. Otherwise sunny and hot again Tuesday and Wednesday, especially inland. Breezy at times, particularly along coasts.

Something of a north to south split to start the period. Some rain or showers are likely in the north whilst it will be predominantly dry, sunny and hot in the south. The heat in the south will likely ease into next weekend but probably remain a little above average. Further into August high pressure will likely become more widely dominant leading to settled conditions for most. There are signs that low pressure systems or thundery interludes will interrupt this at times, but rainfall amounts will probably be variable, with some areas continuing to see relatively little. Temperatures are likely to remain above average, with a chance of a return of the hot conditions seen earlier in the period.

The broad theme of high pressure remaining in place at least close to the UK seems most probable, but with occasional more unsettled or changeable interludes. These interludes will either be the result of Atlantic frontal systems moving east or thundery plumes possibly drifting north from the continent. The broadly settled conditions mean that rainfall amounts overall are more likely to be below normal than above. Temperatures will probably be above average and some spells of hot weather and heatwaves are possible, especially in the south.
