It has been particularly wet around lothian and the borders into fife as well, more downpours to come here, and further south we are starting to see these showers breaking out across southern parts of england, they will be slow moving, heavy and thundery, the threat of some local flooding, and we could get showers into east anglia. There will be some sunshine around as well, but despite that sunshine, and those lighter winds, temperatures are not as high as they should be at this time of the year. There is heavy, thundery downpours that do develop this afternoon will develop into this evening before gradually fading away overnight. Some clearer spells developing, a little mist here and there, and temperature should remain in double figures, typically 13 in towns and cities. Heading into tomorrow we have got the prospect of more dry weather around for more of the country, and more sunshine too. C
