Over the next few weeks, the weather forecast is set to follow a similar theme with outbreaks of rain predicted across the UK.

July 14 to July 23

Into the weekend, conditions will be mostly cool to average with some showers at times, most settled in the north west.

The first part of the new week is likely to see a mixture of rain or showers move in from the south west.

A more westerly breeze will see temperatures settle to just above average, feeling warm in sunnier periods outside of heavy showers or thunderstorms.

A more settled spell will take place mid-week in the south, possibly spreading to much of the UK, before a more showery northwest flow resumes.

Winds after the weekend will be mostly light to moderate, though gusty conditions with heavy showers and thunderstorms remain likely.
