Cloud breaking to allow some late bright spells for Thursday evening. Remaining dry overnight with clear spells and light winds. A slightly muggy evening but feeling fresher by dawn on Friday. Minimum temperature 13 °C.

Friday:

Much brighter than Thursday with plenty of sunny spells. Isolated, mostly light, showers popping up at times, but many should stay dry. Feeling pleasant with temperatures near the seasonal average. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Heavy and potentially thundery showers possible on Saturday. Fine and dry for Sunday and into next week, though sunshine perhaps hazier on Monday as cloud returns. Turning warmer.

The end of July and into early August will typically be dominated by a northwest-southeast split. Northwestern areas will probably experience rather breezy conditions with cloud and some outbreaks of rain or drizzle as weakening Atlantic frontal systems attempt to push eastwards across the UK. Toward the south and east it will tend to be drier and brighter much of the time, although there is also the small possibility of some thundery showers spreading in from the nearby continent at times. Temperatures during this period will probably be close to or slightly above average overall, with the likelihood of some very warm conditions developing in the south and perhaps parts of the east at times.

No single weather type is expected to dominate through this period. Some spells of dry, settled weather will likely alternate with wetter, cloudier conditions at times. The wettest conditions will probably be in the northwest, with the southeast tending to be driest. Through the period as a whole, warmer than average conditions are more probable, perhaps with some short-lived hot spells.
