Overview of hot weather over the next 5 days
Very warm to hot conditions for most areas this week, particularly so in southern and central parts of England. Overnight temperatures also rising mid-week, making for uncomfortable nights. Hottest temperatures becoming confined to the east and southeast on Friday, before cooling on Saturday.
Overview of hot weather over the next 6 to 15 days
Turning cooler over the weekend, with temperatures likely dropping below the low impact threshold. This may be short lived however, with the potential for temperatures to rise above the low impact threshold, at least in the south, next week. There is a risk of unsettled weather or thundery outbreaks.
Overview of hot weather over the next 16 to 30 days
Overall, mostly settled conditions are likely to continue but with low confidence. There could be brief interludes of unsettled weather or thundery outbreaks. Further very warm to hot spells are possible with the greatest potential in the south and southeast.
