The BBC says Saturday 7 June to Sunday 15 June will be “c ooler and unsettled initially”, adding: “The high pressure ridge to the west of the UK is still ensuring a brisk west to north-westerly flow with embedded low pressure systems affecting many over the weekend.
“On Saturday there will be spells of heavy rain or showers, with the chance of intense thunderstorms in portions of southern England and perhaps southern Wales, along with squally winds and some larger hail possible in places.
“On Sunday, showers are still expected to develop over the course of the day, but conditions could start to calm down from the west. Consistent with still a fairly cool airmass across the UK and so it could get quite chilly in places overnight.
“Into next week, drier and calmer conditions could largely prevail. The latter is related to an emerging high pressure zone across southern parts of the country. Nevertheless, Scotland and Northern Ireland may see wetter and slightly windier conditions.”
The BBC adds: “Around the middle part of next week, a stronger high pressure ridge might shift over the UK bringing briefly very warm conditions, especially to the south and south-east.
“There is growing uncertainty beyond the middle of next week and towards next weekend. However, weather forecast models agree to some extent that slightly cooler and more changeable conditions will try and move in from the south-west.
“A similar pattern could continue through the weekend, followed by a calmer and drier phase developing as a high pressure zone forms.
“Temperatures should gradually drop but will remain above average for the time being.”
