rain band continues to develop, so the rain turns heavier and the kitchen window for a time across east angliantually moves out of the way of the east coast of east anglia. then it'll be a day of sunny spells and passing showers. a day across england and wales means that if you do catch a shower it will move through fairly quickly. we should see about 20 in the warmer spots in the east. the forecast for wimbledon, today, loss of the day will be washed out with heavy persistent rain. tomorrow a different story. there could be the passing shower, but for most of the day the play will be unaffected. heading into thursday, an area of low pressure spins of the atlantic bringing heavy rain to northern ireland, particularly western counties. it could bring some localised flooding. further eastward, the weather a bit drier, some higher cloud making sunshine hazy. it will start to get warmer more widely across england, wales, the eastern areas of scotland. temperatures should start to climb into the low 20s. by the end of the week, still the threat of some rain from this weather front. 0therwise, south

now, tuesday morning, we'll see that band of rain start off with across east anglia, south east englandout of the way. but once it's gone, it's essentially a day of sunshine and showers. i think some of the showers could merge together to give some longer spells of rain for west scotland, and perhaps through the central lowlands, and also some fairly lengthy downpours coming across wales and running into the midlands too. temperatures a little bit below average for the time of year, but in the sun it won't feel too bad. now, wimbledon, i can't rule out an odd passing shower, but there'll be large stretches of the day that are dry with some sunshine coming through. taking a look at the jet stream pattern across a good chunk of the northern hemisphere. we've got this pattern at the moment. this is an omega block. now, the uk finds itself underneath a trough. that's where low pressure form. and the thing with these blocks is theyjust don't move very far. it's going to be like this really throughout the rest of this week, into the weekend and even into next week. and what that does for us i

evening into england and scotland, showers and thunderstorms, humid air in places, high 20s across east anglias the channel islands and the far south—east of england we could see some more storms return. in between those two, most leases become dry, partly clear skies, not assume it as the night just gone. sunday, south—east england, east anglia, could be heavy thundery rain in the morning, where to start for northern england and scotland. elsewhere, dry start, sunny spells, showers developing across wales, the midlands. could be further interruptions. the ashes, silverstone, wimbledon, hopefully a lot of play. through sunday night into monday, next developing area of low pressure to the south west will bring heavy rain across parts of ireland and across wales, spreading through the midlands, southern scotland. some showers could still be on the thundery side. if anything, as low pressure moves to the north—east of as through this coming week we have more of a westerly or north—westerly airflow, things will be much cooler through the week ahead, if anything temperatures at or below average for

we've got a band of rain moving across the midlands, east anglia, south east england.in the midlands before we start to see showers build into the afternoon. temperatures still a little bit below par for the time of year. highs between around 17 and 19 degrees, for most. it might be an odd 20 or 21 in the very warmest areas. heading into the middle part of the week, the low pressure is still there, but it's weakening. and so i think we'll tend to see the weather become a little bit more showery in nature. so the showers mainly affecting northern ireland, scotland, parts of north west england, north west wales, probably drier to the midlands and southern england. but even here, there could be one or two showers building through the day. temperatures coming up an odd degree or two. 21 degrees the high in london, about 17 in glasgow. but then it starts to get warmer later in the week. we can see highs hit 27 in london this weekend. southerly winds and warmer air coming up from france.

but whilst you've got the sunshine out and fewer showers, east anglia south east could see temperatures the rain fizzles into more showery conditions through monday night to the north. but in the south, more persistent rain returns wales and across central and southern england to take us into tuesday. that may be slow to clear the south east corner on tuesday. other than that, it's back to sunshine, heavy and thundery showers, most frequent during the afternoon in scotland, northern ireland and the north of england. bit of sunshine in between, but temperatures starting to drop, winds going more west to north westerly and that temperature drop will continue further through the second half of the week as our low pressure pushes its way off towards norway. winds going to a more north or north westerly direction, especially for scotland for a time. so temperatures will drop here. further north you are, showers most frequent, heaviest for the south, you are fewer showers at times. temperatures still in the low 20s here and temperatures in the north of scotland, only the mid—teens at highest.

does do we are looking at a bit of rain to start off the day particularly across the midlands, east anglialand. monday morning that will clear away. and then it's a day of sunny spells and just a few showers, perhaps some longer spells of rain just coming into the north west of scotland. but overall, i think a slightly better kind of weather day. temperatures, though, still below average for the time of year with those north westerly winds for tuesday. more showers in the forecast. and then the middle of the new week sees another area of low pressure. well, you know what that means. a lot more rain on the way. so no sign of any prolonged, nice settled sunny spells of weather. staying unsettled. showers around on tuesday. longer spells of rain later in the week.
