A sunny and very warm weekend for most.
Most of the UK will have warm evening sunshine, followed by a clear night, with only a few mist patches just before dawn. However, western Scotland will be cloudier, and there will be some rain in the far northwest.
Wall-to-wall sunshine is expected for most. It will be very warm, though less so near south-facing coasts. Northwest Scotland and parts of Northern Ireland will be cloudier with possible rain.
Warm and fine weather will continue across most of the UK, and the east will stay very warm. Cloud, wind and occasional rain will affect some northwestern parts at times.
Updated:
The end of August should see a split in the weather across the UK, with dry and sunny conditions prevailing across many areas, in particular southeast England, and for cloudier conditions across the far northwest. The far northwest will see rain at times, followed by periods with sunny spells and showers. Any strong winds will also be restricted to the far northwest. August temperatures will be above average overall and hot in the southeast, but closer to average in the far northwest. There is lower confidence for early September with quite mixed signals, however, it is likely that the most prolonged sunny periods will be in the south and that it will be more changeable in the north. Temperatures only at or slightly above average for the time of year.

Confidence remains rather low during this period, but most areas should see some spells of fine, dry, and sunny weather. These spells of fine weather will be most prolonged in the south of the UK. Northern parts are likely to see more changeable conditions through this period with spells of rain and stronger winds, these extending further south at times too. On the whole temperatures will be closer to or slightly above average for the time of year.
