Monday
High pressure to the southeast brings dry weather much of the day for central, southern and eastern England. Sunshine will cloud over as fronts spread from the northwest. Rain will already affect Ireland and northwestern Britain early in the day, this rain becoming more widespread into Wales and the north Midlands as the day progresses, reaching the far southeast of England through the evening. Sunny spells and showers follow from the west. A southwesterly breeze strengthening. Highs at 15 to 24C, warmest south.

Monday night
Through Monday night and into Tuesday morning the band of rain clears the far southeast of England. Showers continue to affect western coasts and hills overnight and may merge to give longer spells of rain over western Scotland. Rather cloudy with the best of any clear skies over southeast Scotland and northeast England. Overnight lows at 7 to 11C for northern and central England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland; 13 to 16C for southern England.

Tuesday
A generally unsettled day is likely with areas of rain or showers passing eastwards. A risk of some heavy bursts with local thunder. Some rain may persist for a few hours, but locally some areas may escape mostly dry, with the southwest perhaps faring best overall. A lot of cloud. A moderate westerly breeze, strongest toward the south. Temperatures varied, cooler where rain lingers. High temepratures range from 13 to 22C.

Wednesday
Pressure is likely to build again from the southwest, allowing things to gradually settle down for many beyond midweek. A few areas of showers are likely for Wednesday, these mainly in the north and west in the morning, transferring to eastern counties into the afternoon where they may be locally heavy. Sunny spells and broken cloud. Highs reaching 16 to 22C.
