Forecast issued by the Met Office on behalf of UKHSA on Monday, 21, July, 2025 at 09:00

Overview of hot weather over the next 5 days

A cyclonic pattern will bring a mix of sunny spells and scattered showers, some of which may be heavy and thundery. By Thursday, showers are expected to become mostly confined to eastern areas. On Friday, western regions will turn cloudier, with patchy light rain gradually spreading east or southeast. Daytime temperatures will generally be around average, though may rise slightly above average in the south and east by Friday.

Overview of hot weather over the next 6 to 15 days

By the weekend, westerly winds are expected to dominate, bringing occasional rain—mainly in the west and northwest, especially over hills. Southern and eastern areas are more likely to see drier, sunnier spells. Temperatures will generally be near or a little above average, with only a slight chance of breaching the low threshold toward the end of the month and into early August.

Overview of hot weather over the next 16 to 30 days

A changeable pattern will likely continue, with spells of rain or showers mixed in with some drier, brighter days. There are signs that high pressure to the southwest may try to extend its influence across the UK, which could bring more in the way of dry, settled weather as we head further into August. Temperatures will likely continue to be near or above average overall, with a continuing chance of some very warm or hot spells, especially in the south and east, if high pressure wins out for a decent stretch of time
