Tuesday was a predominantly dry day with the heart of the country seeing the best of the sunshine. If we look at the Weather Watcher picture from herefordshire, this illustrates the point nicely. There was cloud topping and tailing the country in the cloud, but enough for outbreaks of showery rain in the far north West Of Scotland. This is how we closed out the day yesterday with cloud and rain in the north and a little cloud lingering down to the south west and that will still be with us first thing this wednesday morning. Some coastal and some sea fog here. It will be quite a warm start, however, to the day. Mid teens already and so temperatures are set to lift as we go through the morning. But we keep the cloud to the south west with the best of the brightness really across south eastern and eastern areas. We will chase cloud through the day but we get the best of the sunshine and temperatures will respond. Into Northern Ireland we start off with showery outbreaks of rain to the north and West Of Scotland but these will primarily sit towards the north west of the great glen and as we go through the day, a couple showers will filter further east. They will be offloaded by then. Elsewhere, broken cloud, some sunshine and where we get the best of the sunshine, the temperature will respond. But despite cloud around it will be a warm day for all of us, generally at around 19 or 25 degrees. Maybe a little bit fresher in the final. One thing is for certain, later on in the week we keep that dry theme and there will be more in the way of sunshine. As a consequence, temperatures respond. Warm to hot in places, particularly in the south west corner. We can see first signs of that on thursday with decent spells of sunshine coming through much of the country and you can see that we will see high 20s likely into the south east corner, maybe as high as 23 or 2a in sheltered Western Areas of scotland. This area of High Pressure may drift further east and that will allow it to continue to drag up even warmer air from the near continent but at the same time, however, there is a potential for a Weather Front to push on from the west. As we move out of friday into the start of the weekend, yes, it is a bank holiday weekend, there yes, it is a bank holiday weekend, there is a potential for some of us to see 30 degrees however, with that front knocking on the door there is also the potential for a thundery breakdowns. Do not make this the last forecast you see for the bank holiday weekend. There is the potential for sharp thundery downpours to moving from the south west, of it, however, it will stay quite warm with lots of sunshine. Hello and welcome. Im Karin 6iannone in london.
