Headline:

Warm sunny spells and risk of heavy showers and thunderstorms.

Today:

Dull start with patchy drizzle. Cloud will soon break up to leave warm sunny spells. However, as temperatures rise some heavy showers will then develop, particularly in the west where they may turn locally thundery. Drier by late afternoon. Breezy. Maximum temperature 23 °C.

Tonight:

Showers fading by the evening leaving late sunshine. Low cloud may feed in from the Wash to affect northern and western parts overnight. Clearer skies elsewhere across East of England. Minimum temperature 14 °C.

Saturday:

Early showers in the south pushing northwards. Cloud breaking up to sunny spells with further showers breaking out as temperatures rise. Risk of thunderstorms and heavy downpours. Drier Saturday evening. Maximum temperature 24 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Sunny spells Sunday morning before cloud and heavy, locally thundery, rain slowly pushes north. Rain persisting Monday with heavy downpours before clearing overnight. Bright spells and isolated daytime showers Tuesday.

Some rain across southeastern parts, lighter and not as extensive as previous days and tending to ease away to the southeast by the end of Tuesday. Elsewhere, generally settled conditions prevailing for most places, although with a band of cloud and some rain moving across the far north, particularly the northwest and a few showers moving into western parts further south. Temperatures likely a bit cooler than previous days. A transition to a generally more unsettled, mobile westerly pattern is most likely by midweek and beyond, with spells of wind and rain moving into many areas, but more especially in the south. Towards the end of the week, much cooler, showery conditions are expected for many parts with the north and west likely being a focus for these showers.

Typical autumn weather will probably affect the UK with a mix of weather types through the first half of October. Periods of unsettled conditions, with wind and rain at times, will likely be interspersed with shorter spells of calmer and drier weather. Overall, wetter than average conditions are expected during this period, especially in central and southern areas. Temperatures are most likely to be close to or slightly above average overall, although some cooler spells are possible at times.
