In the period up to September 10, the Met Office has predicted “unsettled weather conditions” with the chance of heavy rain or showers intermingled with some “short-lived spells of drier and more settled weather“.
In its long-range forecast from August 31 to September 9, a spokesperson for the Met Office said: “Changeable and unsettled weather conditions are expected across the UK during this period with low pressure systems tending to dominate the overall pattern.
“This will mean showers or longer spells of rain will affect the majority of the UK at times.
“Some heavy rain or showers are expected in places, most often in the west.
“Thunderstorms and hail are also possible, as are some spells of strong winds if any deep areas of low pressure form in the vicinity of the UK.
“Some short-lived spells of drier and more settled weather are also possible at times.
“Temperatures will likely be close to average or slightly below overall, but may rise above at times in any drier, sunnier spells.”
