UK forecast for the next 5 days

Headline:

Fine and warm with plenty of sunshine.

Cloud and rain will clear southeast England by mid morning to leave a dry and warm day with sunny spells. The best of the sunshine is likely to be around the coasts, where there will be gentle sea breezes.

Outlook for the UK over the next 6-30 days

UK Outlook for Sunday 16 Jul 2017 to Tuesday 25 Jul 2017:

Sunday is expected to be rather breezy with a band of rain slowly and erratically sinking southwards throughout the day, becoming patchy in nature as it does so. Southern areas could be very warm and humid. Behind this cooler and fresher conditions should move in from the northwest. Once this rain has cleared away to the southeast, settled conditions are likely to prevail. This will lead to generally dry and fine weather with warm sunshine. However, there may be some rain and stronger winds at times in the northwest. By the end of the period it may turn warmer across the country. However, it is also likely to be quite humid with showers and perhaps some thunder possible across the south at times.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 26 Jul 2017 to Wednesday 9 Aug 2017:

Prolonged dry and warm spells may become more prevalent across much of the UK by the end of July, however there is a risk of thunder at times, especially in the south. Towards the beginning of August a less settled pattern is more likely with northern areas seeing a mixture of sunshine and showers or longer outbreaks of rain. Southern areas will probably stay drier overall, but even here there will be a risk of some rain or showers at times.
