 Fresh Showery Days Added : Sat 4 July : 08:42 BST
Another pretty warm day is in store across parts of southeast England and East Anglia today with temperatures in the mid to high seventies. It will be feeling somewhat fresher than recent days here, however, and for the rest of Britain and Ireland it will be much cooler and fresher. The hot air has been pushed away to the east, leaving in its wake a much cooler flow coming in from off the Atlantic.
Also associated with the cooler air is low pressure, and this will become the main feature of our weather over the next few days as it slowly tracks across Britain. This low will bring plenty of showers or longer spells of rain with it, but there will still be some sunny spells to enjoy at times.
This morning has started off on a bright note for many areas, but showers are already affecting Ireland, Wales and southwest England and some of these are on the heavy side. As we go through the day showers will become more widespread in many parts, with some heavy and thundery ones likely too. The best chance of staying dry will be towards the southeast where it will probably remain mostly dry. This is good news for the Ladies Final at Wimbledon, with a fine and warm afternoon in store and just the small risk (20%) of a shower. Temperatures generally will be much cooler than recently, but still warm in the southeast.
Many of the showers will ease back to western areas tonight, before becoming more widespread once again tomorrow. Again they will become heavy with the risk of thunder, especially towards northern and western areas. Temperatures will be near normal for many, perhaps still just above normal in the southeast.
This pattern then looks like continuing well into next week with showers or longer spells of rain expected everywhere at some point. The showers by day will be heavy with a risk of thunder, but will tend to mostly die away at night. It will be a much cooler and fresher week, and more comfortable for many! Email to Friend
