This Evening and Tonight:

A fine evening to come with some late sunshine in places. Remaining generally dry overnight, although isolated showers are possible in western coastal regions, especially through the Bristol Channel. Cooler than recent nights, particularly in rural areas. Isolated fog patches. Minimum temperature 8 °C.

Saturday:

A good deal of sunshine first thing and many places remaining dry all day. Cloud bubbling up with isolated showers breaking out, though warm sunny spells continuing for most. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Generally fine and settled on Sunday and into next week with plenty of strong sunshine, especially at first. Perhaps cloudier by Tuesday with thundery showers possible later. Turning much warmer.

The end of July and into early August will typically be dominated by a northwest-southeast split. North-western areas will probably experience rather breezy conditions with cloud and some outbreaks of rain or drizzle as weakening Atlantic frontal systems attempt to push eastwards across the UK. Toward the south and east it will tend to be drier and brighter much of the time, although there is also the small possibility of some thundery showers spreading in from the nearby continent at times. Temperatures during this period will probably be close to or slightly above average overall, with the likelihood of some very warm conditions developing in the south and perhaps parts of the east at times.

No single weather type is expected to dominate through this period. Some spells of dry, settled weather will likely alternate with wetter, cloudier conditions at times. The wettest conditions will probably be in the northwest, with the southeast tending to be driest. Through the period as a whole, warmer than average conditions are more probable, perhaps with some short-lived hot spells.
