UK Day 6-7 and week 2

  • Sunday looks most likely to be a fairly cool and showery day, similar to Saturday although with lighter winds which gives a greater chance for some places to catch a slow-moving heavy downpour.
  • Sunny spells too.
  • Into the following week, further cloud and rain bearing weather systems are likely to move into at least the west of the UK, accompanied by stronger winds at times, continuing the recent changeable theme.
  • However, there are tentative signs that further into next week, conditions may begin to gradually turn a bit more settled, at least for a time.
  • This particularly so across eastern parts, with temperatures more widely trending back up to average and then potentially above average as the week progresses.

UK Week 3 and 4

  • There is a chance that the period could start off on a settled note, but overall fairly changeable and at times cool weather is slightly favoured during the second half of July.
  • This doesn't rule out brief, warm or even hot spells.
  • Wetter than average conditions are slightly more likely than drier than average conditions, with western and southern UK more likely than elsewhere to see above average rainfall.
