The summer is coming to an end over the weekend and it looks like we will end on a High (get it, High Pressure). We have drawn in some milder South-Westerly wind but the cloud trapped within this system has caused national depression :(
However, during parts of Friday and into Saturday, we are expecting some sunny breaks and maybe longer spells of sunshine. If this occurs, we could well see temperature reaching 27c or 28c locally. Sunday currently looks stormy.
Friday
Friday is looking to start dry and bright in the East/South-East with more cloud further west. This cloud is expected to push further inland later in the day but the east and south-east still looking the best. If we get enough sun, temperatures are expected to respond nicely in the East/South-East.
Highs of 18c to 22c in the North and 23c to 26c in the South - where 27c is possible locally.
Saturday
Saturday is looking cloudy once again in the North with some sunshine espected in the South and East once again. Later on, there is a risk of some thundery showers across the West (Wales in particular). Temperatures are expected to respond with the sun in the South.
Highs of 19c to 22c in the North and 24c to 27c in the South (with 28c possible locally).
Sunday
Winds are expected to turn southerly which is likely to draw up unstable air from a shortwave feature. The morning projections indicate heavy thundery showers pushing up from the France into Southern England. These may turn into heavy thunderstorm pulses as they move into the South-East and East Anglia. Current conditions suggest some severe weather in these areas. It worth keeping an eye on this.
We will be issuing a detailed watch tomorrow, followed by flash warnings into Saturday and Sunday.
Highs of 18c to 20c in the North and 21c to 23c in the South.
