UK weather maps are forecasting an end to the beautiful sunny weather as most of the country could be covered by rain in June. WXCHARTS maps, aided by Metdesk data, show a huge downpour hitting England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland on June 5 at midday.
Almost all of England is covered in blue on the map, with parts of the southeast and northeast the only areas to dodge the wet conditions.
The south coast of East Sussex, Kent and Devon could be the lucky areas to stay dry. The east coast, stretching from Suffolk up to Newcastle, also looks set to avoid the deluge.
The south and central parts of Scotland will be worst hit. The forecasts suggest that Wales and Northern Ireland will be completely covered by rain.
Only the far north of Scotland, from Inverness up to Wick, could be spared from the rain.
The Met Office is forecasting showers and longer spells of rain for most of the country from Wednesday, June 4, to Friday, June 13.
On the weekend of June 7-8, high pressure is expected, while the north will see “further episodes of rain or showers and strong winds.”
Towards the end of this period, the Met Office suggests there is a “chance of a few hot days.”
Looking ahead to June 14 – June 28, the Met Office adds: “Changeable weather is most likely across the UK with a mixture of Atlantic weather systems moving in from the west interspersed with dry and sunny periods, perhaps with a bias towards longer dry spells early in the period.
“Temperatures are most likely to be near or slightly above normal, perhaps with some hot spells at times, especially across the south.”
