UK long range weather forecast
Tuesday is likely to be a dry day for many, although outbreaks of rain are possible in western areas, with strong winds in the northwest. Sunny spells most likely in the south. A good deal of dry and settled weather likely for Wednesday and Thursday, especially across the south and southwest. Some showers possible in the north, most frequently in northwest Scotland. A low risk of more organised spells of rain affecting the far north at times. This generally settled regime persists for much of the remainder of the period, although occasional spells of more organised cloud and rain may continue to affect northern parts at times. Temperatures most likely near normal at first, but gradually becoming warmer through the period - especially in the south and southwest.
Updated:
The south is likely to see more settled conditions, while any unsettled weather will be confined mostly to the north, although may occasionally extend to the rest of the UK through the middle of July. The further we move through the period, the greater the chance of settled, dry and fine weather becoming more widespread. Temperatures are likely to trend near or above average initially and may become widely warm towards the end of the month, especially across the south.
