It’s safe to say that Scots have seen some mixed weather<\/a> recently, with a scorching heatwave earlier in the month followed by several bouts of storms and downpours last weekend. But according to weather charts, another scorcher is headed for the UK, and while Scotland won’t get all of the sun, we’re set to see a welcome change from the recent drizzle.<\/p>\n A three-day heatwave is headed for the UK at the start of next month, mostly affecting down south. WX Charts predicts a scorcher from August 5 to August 7, were southern temperatures could see a peak of 32C, which was also the maximum mercury in Scotland during the last heatwave.<\/a><\/p>\n But as the south basks in piping temperatures, will we Scots<\/a> get another chance to sunbathe? We definitely won’t see heatwave conditions, but we should expect some sunny spells and comfortably warm temperatures for the same week.<\/p>\n While Scots may not see quite as tropical temperatures as southern England, we can expect some heat just before the coming sunny spell hits the rest of the UK. On Sunday, August 3, WX Charts predicts some toasty temperatures peaking at 22C in the east of the country, stretching from the Central Belt all the way up to the top of the Highlands.<\/a><\/p>\n Monday, August 4 is to see more warm temperatures, even if they’re not heatwave worthy. On this day, the mercury is to reach the same max of 22C around Glasgow, with much of the country seeing warm weather ranging in the mid to high teens.<\/p>\n Temperatures are to remain similar for the rest of that week, with mild weather reaching a peak of around 21C, while England sizzles in much hotter conditions.<\/p>\n The Met Office’s long-range forecast for July 29 – August 7 says: “The highest chance of drier and sunnier weather is expected across southern and eastern parts of the country.<\/p>\n “Through the period, high pressure may start to have greater influence as it builds northeast across the country. This bringing more prolonged settled spells to many areas. Breeziest conditions across the north of the country.<\/p>\n “Temperatures generally near average though with some warmer spells likely.”<\/p>\n The coming period of more settled weather comes after consistently erratic conditions have been seen across the country over the past few weeks.<\/p>\n Earlier this month, Scots saw a scorching heatwave<\/a> with the mercury breaking 32C, a temperature that has only been seen six times in Scotland since 1961.<\/p>\n Scots basked in weather reaching as high as 32.2C two weeks ago in Aviemore, where the hottest Scottish day since 2023 was recorded on Saturday, July 12.<\/p>\n Last weekend then saw several yellow thunderstorm <\/a>and rainfall warnings for much of the UK, when heavy downpours drenched the country, even though temperatures were still in the high teens for most of Scotland.<\/p>\n The Met Office warned of widespread disruption, including some damage to buildings and a small chance of danger to life, which are all consequences associated with a yellow thunderstorm<\/a> warning.<\/p>\n These erratic and changeable conditions come as the Met Office issued a warning<\/a> that climate change is turning extreme weather into a ‘new normal’ for the UK, as angry storms, flash flooding and searing temperatures become all the more frequent.<\/p>\n Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.<\/p>\n You’ll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.<\/p>\n No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.<\/p>\n![\"WX](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/0_WX-Chart-August-3.jpg\")
