Headline:

Very warm and humid with heavy thundery downpours today.

Today:

Areas of heavy thundery rain this morning, torrential in places, leading to potential localised flooding. As the rain clears north this afternoon brighter conditions will follow, and scattered showers develop, some of these thundery. Feeling very warm and humid. Maximum temperature 25 °C.

Generally cloudy, with initial showers soon dying away. Then most places will remain dry, although a few lighter showers may arrive later tonight. Feeling warm and muggy. Minimum temperature 16 °C.

Sunday:

Scattered showers or longer spells of rain will soon arrive, often heavy and perhaps thundery. However, some dry and sunnier spells will still occur. Becoming very warm again. Maximum temperature 25 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Monday areas of rain or showers, often heavy and thundery. Tuesday and Wednesday some dry and sunnier spells, with scattered still occasionally heavy showers. Temperatures will be closer to average.

Overall a rather more changeable pattern of weather through this period, compared to much of the summer thus far. Wednesday will likely see a continuation of heavy, perhaps thundery showers, although the focus may be more across the north and east by this stage. Thereafter, a general westerly or north-westerly regime looks to become established, with occasional weather systems moving in from the Atlantic. This means further rain or showers and breezy conditions at times, especially in the northwest. This will be interspersed with some drier, sunnier periods. Temperatures are expected to be close to or a little above average for most of the period. This broad pattern is likely to continue through to the end of July.

The rather changeable pattern will likely continue through into the start of August with spells of rain or showers mixed in with some drier, brighter days. However there are signs that high pressure may become rather more dominant, which could bring more in the way dry, settled weather more widely as we progress further into the month. Temperatures will likely continue to be above average overall, with the possibility of very warm or hot spells developing period, especially further south and east.
