Fine, dry and increasingly hot.
Staying dry throughout the day with blue skies and plenty of sunshine. Temperatures rising rapidly making it feel hot by the afternoon. Winds mostly light. Maximum temperature 33 °C.
Remaining dry with clear skies. After a hot day, temperatures only very slowly subsiding, and mostly remaining in the mid to high teens leading to an uncomfortable night for many. Minimum temperature 15 °C.
After the warm start, temperatures will rise steadily throughout the morning under sunny skies. Feeling hot on Friday afternoon in the sunshine, and with light winds. Maximum temperature 34 °C.
Dry and sunny on Saturday, and turning very hot. A little cloudier on Sunday, but still hot. Cloudier still on Monday with a risk of showers. Still feeling very warm.
Updated:
This period will see the breakdown of the hot, sunny and dry weather of recent days, with conditions becoming more unsettled across the UK. Showers will spread from the west and south next week, sometimes heavy and thundery, though drier periods with sunny spells are still likely between them. At the same time, temperatures will gradually decrease to closer to normal for August. Later in the period, the more changeable weather will prevail with a risk of heavy showers or thunderstorms continuing, but clear and dry spells in between too. Returning to warm or very warm towards the end of the period for much of England and Wales, perhaps becoming locally hot in parts of the south and southeast.
Updated:
Following a period of unsettled weather, we may see generally more settled conditions towards the end of August. As we head into September, spells of rain or showers are likely, with the most widespread of these in the north and west. However, periods of dry and sunny weather can still be expected in between. Temperatures are likely to be above average, with the occasional chance of very warm spells.
