The mini heatwave is to end and cooler weather is on the way and unseasonably windy conditions will be seen in the north on Thursday.
Today the temperature has reached highs of 30C and has been far warmer than seen on Tuesday.
Paul Gundersen, Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office said, “A cold front will sweep down from the northwest to the southeast over the next 24 hours, bringing with it cooler air and an end of the very warm weather many have been experiencing in recent days.
“A band of patchy rain, which could be heavy in the far northwest at first, will move east across England and Wales, bringing temperatures closer to average. It will still be very warm in the far southeast on Thursday, but the cooler air will arrive by the evening, and then all places will enjoy a much cooler night than of late.”
Friday will be bright and breezy with showers in the north, heavier across Scotland. Elsewhere, the weather will be fine with variable cloud and sunny spells, feeling warmer in the south and cooler in the north.
The weekend will see plenty of warm and dry weather, especially in the south and east. There will be some cloud and patchy rain or showers around, mostly across central and northern parts of the UK where it will be on the cool side. Southern parts will often see dry and bright weather where it will feel warm in the sunshine.
