UK long range weather forecast
High pressure will tend to dominate, bringing generally dry, settled weather for many. Southern and eastern regions can expect the best of the fine and dry weather, with light winds, and it will be warm or even very warm at the start of this period. The north and northwest will experience cloudier conditions with mostly light rain, though some heavier outbreaks can't be ruled out in the far northwest, with moderate or fresh winds, and near normal temperatures. This generally settled regime persists for much of the remainder of the period, although cloud, showers, and some longer spells of rain may continue to affect northern areas at times. Temperatures widely near or above average through this period, especially in the south and southwest where some hot spells are not impossible.
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.
