Staying unsettled and rather cool feeling.
Daytime showers will ease this evening, becoming confined to the north and west. Heavier showers return in the southwest and Liverpool Bay area by the morning but clearer elsewhere. Locally chilly under clear skies in the north.
Showers in the west will become more widespread through the day. Locally heavy and thundery in southern Scotland, northern England and east Wales. Sunny spells in between and light winds.
Showers in the north on Monday, with cloud and rain across southern areas. Cloud and rain will then move northwards through Tuesday and will stay into Wednesday.
Updated:
A brief period of more widely settled weather looks fairly probable to close out the working week and into the start of the weekend. Many places should see a day or two of fine weather with some sunny spells, albeit on the cool side for July. Thereafter a transition back to rather more changeable conditions looks most likely, though with northwest-southeast split in fortunes. Northwestern areas will probably see more in the way of cloud and rain, whereas southeastern parts stand a better chance of longer periods of dry weather. However, some rain may extend further southeast across all parts of the UK at times. Temperatures will probably pan out close to average overall, though some warmer weather is possible in the south coincident with drier, sunnier periods.
Updated:
As can often be the case at this time of year, predictability at this range is low. There are some signs of a slightly greater than normal chance of a more prolonged settled spell developing at some point during the period, at least for a time, and perhaps more likely in the south. However, by the same token further, perhaps shorter, unsettled interludes are probable too. Above average temperatures overall, and drier than average conditions overall, are very slightly favoured.
