Warm air from southern Europe pushes northwards across the UK today, but weather fronts from the Atlantic will be approaching. The result is that temperatures tomorrow could reach 21°C in central and eastern England, but in much of the UK the focus will increasingly be on heavy rain.(If you would like to browse the website without adverts and access premium features, see below)

Tonight heavy outbreaks of rain spread northwards over much of the UK. The south east, East Anglia and northern Scotland may remain dry. Very mild.

Tomorrow heavy rain continues to be a risk in much of the UK, with the wettest conditions likely in central areas. In East Anglia and the south east it probably remains dry, and if sunny spells develop it could become very warm for the time of the year.
