More hot weather on the horizon for some

Before that, the picture for the rest of this week remains fairly changeable, with influxes of rain from the west on Thursday, fine weather for many on Friday and then a more mixed picture on Saturday when conditions will start to feel more humid.

As we head through the weekend an increasingly hot and humid air mass will push across the southern half of the UK bringing with it the potential for heavy rain, particularly in the east through Monday.

Met Office Chief Meteorologist, Dan Suri, said: "Tropical Storm Debby in North America is helping to strengthen the jet stream, and is causing it to meander over the Atlantic. This will allow hot air to move into the UK later this weekend, and early next week.

"Temperatures are likely to reach the low 30° Celsius in places, notably in the south and southeast. Further north and west within this warm air, outbreaks of heavy showers or thunderstorms are possible. As well as the hot daytime temperatures, a very warm night is also expected on Sunday night into Monday".

By Tuesday, the hot air mass will likely become displaced by fresher conditions. The weather then will become unsettled once again, with occasional Atlantic frontal systems or showers moving through at times. However, the weather will also feel fairly pleasant in between these systems.
