hello there. temperatures have been a little bit below average for the first week ofjuly. however, things are set to get a lot hotter as we look at the forecast for tomorrow — more on that in a second. today, many of us have had dry weather with some spells of sunshine and some showers, though, for scotland and some heavy rain in northern ireland, all tied in with this thick cloud you can see on the satellite picture, and weather fronts that have been bringing some heavy rain to the northwest, well, that's being caused by this area of low pressure. it's on friday, as that low swings back out into the north atlantic, that we start to get these southerly winds moving in, and it's that that boosts our temperatures. so, a big jump in heat tomorrow with highs getting up to 29 degrees celsius in the hottest parts of the country. now, before we see that heat arrive, overnight tonight, we've got some rain, the rain turning heavy for a time as it pushes northwards across scotland. then the rain probably becomes a little bit lighter and patchy, at least for a time, for scotland and for northern ireland. a little bit of rain for a time across north west england. otherwise, england and wales looking largely dry with some clear spells. it will be a warmer night than we've seen over recent nights.
6:58 pm
for friday, then, we've got the remnants of that weather system bringing some rain to northern ireland and scotland to start the day. that will clear away and the weather will turn brighter as we head into the afternoon. it's across england and wales that we'll have sunshine really from dawn till dusk, and it's across england, wales, that we'll see the highest temperatures, widely around 26 for east wales, the midlands, northern england, but as high as 29 degrees celsius around london and the southeast of england. and it does mean we could see the highest temperature of the whole of the wimbledon championship, potentially, during friday, with temperatures certainly getting into the high 20s here. on into the weekend's forecast — we'll keep the warm weather going, but there's a risk of some thundery showers initially working into the west, and then as a plume of moisture gets pulled in from europe, we might well see in from europe, we might well see storms breaking out ahead across parts of eastern england, eastern scotland. one or two of the showers could be torrential, but at the same time, there will be some areas that dodged the downpours altogether and stay dry. temperatures still on the warm side for eastern england — could see temperatures storms breaking out ahead into the mid—20s for northern scotland. for sunday, again, it's a day of sunshine and showers,

but there could be some more organised clumps of rain moving up from the continent. a bit of uncertainty about where that might be, but it could be that we see some torrential rain across eastern areas of england. if that happens, we could see, well, about half a month's worth of rainfall in just a few hours. so there's a risk of seeing some localised flooding, but a bit of uncertaintyjust yet.
