Overview of hot weather over the next 5 days
High pressure in the Atlantic will gradually move northeast this week to be situated over the UK, allowing temperatures to build, becoming very warm or hot for many parts. Most parts will remain dry, with long sunny spells and light winds, feeling increasingly humid too with tropical nights between hot days. Low level threshold temperatures are likely to breached for many central, southern and Eastern regions.
Overview of hot weather over the next 6 to 15 days
A continuation of the hot weather is most likely initially as high pressure remains over or close to the UK, allowing long sunny spells, hot daytime temperatures and uncomfortable humid nights. High pressure will perhaps gradually migrate northward to allow a less-hot spell to develop through the middle of next week, though there remains a risk of low level threshold temperatures to be breached in parts of the south.
Overview of hot weather over the next 16 to 30 days
The most likely situation is for high pressure to influence parts of England, especially southern regions, with a continued chance of light winds, dry and very warm or hot spells. Further north may see stronger winds, cloud and rain, leading to overall lower temperatures. A more widely unsettled regime may then become established late July into early August but confidence is low.
