it was 28 degrees at wembley today. we have just had the warmest day of the year so far in northern ireland. for many parts of the country, though, tomorrow will be cooler and fresher. the cooler air is to the north—west of this band of cloud here. that's been bringing some wetter weather toward scotland, northern ireland and cumbria as well, that band of cloud will take some rain southwards across scotland, northern ireland, eventually arriving in northern england and north wales, by which time there is not much rain left. a warm night for england and wales. east anglia, lincolnshire, the is midlands, temperatures might not be any lower than 17 or 18 degrees. not much rain left for northern england and north wales. that soon peters out, this band of cloud heads further south, eventually arriving in the south—east during the afternoon. some sunshine for a while but a lot of cloud coming into scotland and northern ireland. blustery showers in the north and west of scotland in particular.
7:58 pm
much lower temperatures as well, the cooler air moving down into much of england and wales, but the south—east, east anglia, still very warm or hot, could get close to 30 degrees around the london area. that weather front could still keep some cloud in the south—east as we head to tuesday morning. otherwise, high pressure building from the azores ahead of another weather system, which will freshen the breeze across scotland and northern ireland, bring in more cloud and bring some rain into the north—west. england and wales, though, dry, a lot of sunshine, not going to be as hot in the south—east but elsewhere across the uk, those temperatures are starting to rise a bit. as we move into wednesday, our band of cloud and rain, what's left of it, moving away from scotland and northern ireland, heading into northern england and wales. plenty of sunshine ahead of that, but cooler air still coming back into scotland and northern ireland. quite a contrast in temperatures here, because for many parts of england and wales, it will be getting quite hot and humid, and with that humidity, we could well trigger some thunderstorms later on wednesday, all the way into friday. the potential, particularly across more central and eastern parts of england for some torrential rain as well. that could start as early as wednesday night.
7:59 pm
thursday continues to see this risk of some thundery downpours, moving all the way up from france, cooler air, though, across many parts of the country. temperatures will be lower across the south—east, and across scotland and northern ireland it is dry but it is much cooler.
