UK long range weather forecast
A mostly dry day in the south on Sunday with good spells of sunshine, with a mixture of scattered showers and sunny spells in the north. Most areas will be mostly dry into the middle of next week, beyond which it is likely that the settled conditions will continue for many central and southern areas, bringing dry weather and sunny spells here. Northern and northwestern parts will probably turn increasingly unsettled with spells of rain accompanied by stronger winds at times. Later in the period there is a chance that the unsettled conditions across the north may spread more widely across the rest of the UK. Temperatures near or slightly above average but perhaps warm or at times very warm in the south.
Updated:
Although confidence remains low throughout this period it is likely that settled conditions will persist across many areas towards the end of July. There may also be the occasional spell of wetter and windier weather at times. These are likely to be focused across northern and western areas though may occasionally spread to other regions. Temperatures generally around average, with any periods of particularly warm weather most likely being short-lived and generally across the south.
