UK Outlook for Tuesday 21 Jun 2016 to Thursday 30 Jun 2016:

Cloud and outbreaks of rain will clear eastwards on Tuesday to give drier and brighter conditions for many, albeit with a scattering of showers in the northwest, and some southeastern parts could hang onto the cloud and rain all day. Thereafter there is a higher than usual level of uncertainty in the forecast, but it seems likely that most parts of the country will see changeable, often unsettled weather prevailing. Spells of rain are likely at times, perhaps accompanied by stronger winds in the north, but there will also be some drier, sunnier periods with with the risk of a few showers. Temperatures will generally be near or slightly above average, possibly becoming warm at times, especially in the south.

UK Outlook for Friday 1 Jul 2016 to Friday 15 Jul 2016:

The most unsettled weather is likely across the northern half of the country into July, with showers or longer spells of rain at times though there should also be some drier and brighter interludes. Southern and southeastern parts should see the best of any drier, warmer and sunnier weather though still perhaps some rain or showers at times. Temperatures should be around normal for the time of year, though perhaps a little above at times in the east and southeast.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 22 Jun 2016 to Friday 1 Jul 2016:

Unsettled weather is generally expected to prevail through the second half of next week. Most parts will see some dry and bright weather at times, but spells of rain are expected in the north, whilst in the south the rain will be more showery in nature, perhaps thundery too. Temperatures will be near or slightly above average across northern parts, and slightly above average generally in the south, with a small chance of it becoming very warm at times here. Into the following week a changeable pattern is most probable. The heaviest and most frequent rain is likely to be in the northwest, with the longest dry and bright spells in the southeast. Temperatures will probably be close to average, but slightly above at times in the south.

UK Outlook for Saturday 2 Jul 2016 to Saturday 16 Jul 2016:

Uncertainty is high through this period, but it is most likely that the changeable weather will continue. The most unsettled weather is likely to be across the northern half of the country, with showers or longer spells of rain at times, but still with some drier and brighter interludes. Southern and southeastern parts should see the longest spells of drier, warmer and sunnier weather, but still with some occasional rain or showers. Temperatures should be around normal for the time of year, though perhaps a little above at times in the east and southeast.

UK Outlook for Thursday 23 Jun 2016 to Saturday 2 Jul 2016:

On Thursday and Friday, south-eastern areas look set to be warm and humid with a mix of hazy sunshine and potentially heavy and thundery showers. In comparison, north-western areas are expected to be somewhat cooler and fresher with occasional rain. Over the weekend, the fresher conditions in the northwest will move south-eastwards across all parts to give some sunny weather, although rain may spread from the northwest during Sunday. Beyond the weekend, spells of dry, settled weather are expected to be interspersed with occasional rain. The rain generally more prevalent towards the northwest, with south-eastern areas favoured for more prolonged periods of fine weather. Temperatures near average, though probably slightly above average in the southeast, and below average in the far northwest.

UK Outlook for Sunday 3 Jul 2016 to Sunday 17 Jul 2016:

A westerly regime appears to be the most likely scenario, with high pressure close to southern parts. Given this regime, the weather is likely to remain rather changeable, particularly in the north and northwest. More prolonged periods of settled weather are likely elsewhere, especially in the south. Temperatures are likely to continue around average for the time of year, though probably above average in the southeast.

UK Outlook for Friday 24 Jun 2016 to Sunday 3 Jul 2016:

On Friday and Saturday, most parts should see variable cloud with sunny spells and a few fairly isolated showers, although there is a chance that eastern and southeastern areas could hang on to humid and cloudier conditions at first with a risk of thundery showers. From Sunday, a changeable period of weather looks to become established. There will likely be spells of dry and bright conditions, but these will be interspersed by showers or longer periods of rain, with strengthening winds at times. The rain looks to be more prevalent towards the northwest, whilst southeastern areas are more favoured for longer periods of drier weather. Temperatures are likely to be near normal, though above average at times, especially in the south, and probably becoming generally below normal in the northwest.

UK Outlook for Monday 4 Jul 2016 to Monday 18 Jul 2016:

A westerly regime appears to be the most likely scenario, with high pressure close to southern parts. Given this set-up, the weather is likely to remain rather changeable with spells of dry and fine weather interspersed by wetter and windier conditions. The north and northwest are likely to see more in the way of this unsettled weather, whilst the south and southeast are likely to see the greater share of the drier and more settled periods. Temperatures are likely to continue around average for the time of year, though turning warm during the fine weather and perhaps rather cool during the unsettled spells.

Nice enough output with the dry weather being mentioned......

Countryfile suggesting an interesting thundery low for Central S/SE/East Anglia Wed into Thurs but otherwise a weak westerly for this week. Next week could be stronger westerlies from the Atlantic, good for SE but not for NW

BBC monthly outlook

Monday 20 June—Sunday 3 July
Long days, but good weather?

After the dramatic downpours of last week, this week's weather offers something a little quieter, though still with plenty of variety. We'll all likely see some rain at times, but there will be some drier and brighter interludes thrown into the mix as well. The summer solstice is on Monday and hopefully most of us will see at least some brightness through the day. As a general rule this coming week, the further north and west you live, the fresher it will feel, with rather more humid conditions threatening southern and eastern areas for a time midweek. Whilst some showers cannot be ruled out, it does look as though Glastonbury should see plenty of dry and fine weather, so good news for festival goers.

Monday 27 June—Sunday 10 July
Champagne and strawberries weather?

Wimbledon of course starts this week, so all eyes will be on a good spell of weather for SW19, but how's it looking for the rest of us? It looks like we'll be continuing with this changeable pattern, thanks to a westerly jet stream bringing weather systems across the UK from west to east. This means that all parts are likely to see some rain at times, but there should be some decent drier interludes in between, especially across southern and eastern areas, with temperatures close to what we'd expect at this time of year.

Monday 4 July—Sunday 24 July
High summer, but high temperatures on the cards?

Well, in short, a prolonged spell of hot weather currently looks fairly unlikely, with the broadly westerly regime continuing to dominate our weather. So a mixed bag is probably a good expectation to have, with spells of rain mixed in with sunnier interludes. Saying that, the Azores high may not be too far away from southern Britain during this period, meaning it is perhaps these areas that stand the greatest chance of seeing the driest and warmest weather.

Next week

No heatwave, but most of us should see some reasonable summer weather at times.

In other words pretty unspectacular for most of us. There seems no sign this summer of a sustained settled spell. Repeat of 2015 I think .....

Correct. Although 2015 was much better than this God forsaken start to summer. Yes it was cool but it was relatively dry.

Don't worry.  By mid December there will be no sign of a sustained extreme cold spell and everyone will be moaning that they still haven't seen a heavy snowfall and what an awful winter it is ....


One day people will realise that when you live on a a small mountainous island on the eastern side of a very large ocean. prolonged settled periods are the exception.  But not yet.
