Wet weather pushes into the north west today, but elsewhere it remains dry. Tomorrow will be mostly fine and very warm or hot, with temperatures peaking at close to 30C (86F). However, the fine conditions won't last, and during Saturday thundery showers steadily move northeastwards. The longer term is looking very mixed and at the moment there is no sign of a repeat of the heatwave conditions experienced last July. (If you would like to browse the website without adverts and contribute to its ongoing development, explore the payment options, see below)

Thundery breakdown this weekend

Saturday is looking very mixed. A band of heavy and thundery showers is expected to slowly push northeastwards across much of the UK. There is the potential for localised downpours and flash flooding. Sunny periods are likely too, and it remains very warm.

Sunday should bring warm sunny periods to much of the UK. However, scattered showers develop and they could turn heavy in places.

The changeable theme continues on Monday. Showery spells of rain probably become widespread, but there will be dry periods too. The warmest and sunniest weather is likely to be in the south.
