High pressure is set to bring mostly dry and warm weather to the UK from mid-week, with Wednesday and Thursday expected to feature abundant sunshine for many regions. Southern areas, however, may experience windier conditions, with the possibility of thunder and coastal gales in parts of the South West.
By Friday, the weather is anticipated to turn more unsettled. Rain and showers are forecast to spread from the South and West, carrying the potential for some heavy and thundery downpours. Where sunshine remains ahead of this system, particularly in southern and central England, it will feel warm and humid, with temperatures possibly reaching 25C.
The Bank Holiday weekend is looking more changeable. While there will be periods of sunshine, showers are expected at times, especially in the North. More precise details regarding the weekend forecast will become clearer closer to the time.
