The day starts off with plenty of sunshine and, for the greater part of the day, that is how it will continue. We will see an increase in the cloud cover during the afternoon and this will bring a 10% risk of an isolated shower. The headline weather news of the day, however, is that it is going to be warm and, finally, the summer weather is here!
We can expect our top temperature today to climb up to around 26c by around 16:00 hours and overnight the minimum will be warm and muggy at 18c.
If you are working outside today the UV index is high. It is important, therefore, that you protect your skin from burning. The pollen count will also be high today and tomorrow.
The wind will be deriving from the WSW-SW this morning before moving towards the SE later in the day. It is this later wind direction along with jet stream sitting below the UK that will bring us a very warm and clear day tomorrow. The average wind speed today will be around 2mph.
Summary: A bright start. Some cloud during the day but remaining very warm all day.
