Temperatures perhaps reach 21°C during sunny spells. Thursday and Friday are likely to be more mixed, with a greater chance of dry periods. Later in the week it is expected to turn cooler as frontal systems move in from the Atlantic and push eastwards. Temperatures then drop as a westerly flow develops.
