Sheffield (South Yorkshire) weather

Headline:

Cloudy, with outbreaks of rain, heavy and possibly thundery

This Evening and Tonight:

Cloud thickening and becoming murky during the evening, with outbreaks of rain becoming more persistent during the night, this potentially heavy with a risk of thunder. Minimum temperature 12 °C.

Tuesday:

Mostly cloudy on Tuesday with outbreaks of rain or showers, these potentially heavy at times with a risk of thunder. Rain and cloud clearing during the evening. Maximum temperature 20 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Probably dry with sunny spells on Wednesday, before turning more unsettled with the potential for further heavy rain Thursday and Friday. Likely warm on Wednesday, then near average.

Early in this period, low pressure is likely to exist to the northwest or north of the UK, allowing areas of cloud and rain to spread across the UK from the west, though some more settled interludes are also likely, especially in the southeast. Breezy at times, with temperatures mainly near or below normal. Remaining changeable thereafter as weather systems to move across the country from the west, with northern and western areas typically wettest and a greater chance of dry conditions prevailing in the southeast. There is, however, a smaller chance for either unsettled weather to be more widely prevalent, or for a more quiescent period to develop across the south. Overall, temperatures will likely be near normal, but may feel cool in the west at times.

Through this period, there remains a slightly increased chance of more settled spells of weather developing at times, particularly in the south, and the likelihood of this has been gradually increasing over the past few days. However, there is still a substantial chance of other outcomes too, with more changeable periods also likely. Overall drier than average conditions are more likely than wetter than average, and warmer than average conditions are weakly favoured too.
