Rain and showers are forecast for Thursday with a fresh feel to the weather.

Humidity increases on Friday as a warm airmass associated with the recent extreme heatwave in the USA makes it’s way across the Atlantic. Rain and showers will affect the north-west of the UK, but with more sunshine in eastern England, temperatures will head into the high 20C’s.

It becomes much hotter over the weekend as a ridge of high pressure over Europe influences our weather. On Saturday temperatures will more widely cross ‘heatwave thresholds’ reaching 27-30C in south-east England, East Anglia, the Midlands and Central Southern England.

By Sunday the heat reaches parts of east Wales and north England. The highest temperatures will be in East Anglia and southeast England reaching 32C in the hotspots.

The heat will get even more intense on Monday, which is likely to be the peak of the heatwave. In East Anglia and south-east England temperatures are likely to reach 33-34C, challenging or surpassing the highest temperature of 2025.

This is extreme heat and isn’t far away from the June record which stands at 35.6C (96F), recorded at Southampton during the infamous summer of 1976.
