UK Weather: MET Office predicts temperatures of up to 26 degrees
With soaring temperatures, many Britons have been able to bask in the sunshine as a high-pressure system dominates the UK’s weather. However, forecasters have now issued a warning that within a few days, the weather could take a turn as “uncertainty” looms over the coming weekend.
From this Saturday, heavy downpours and thunderstorms are expected towards the south and southwest, potentially spreading further northeast, however, some areas may remain dry.
Cloud cover is expected to remain along northern and eastern coastal areas, with clouds occasionally extending further inland, mostly overnight, the Met Office has said.
Many southern coastal areas are also set to experience a brisk breeze.
While the weekend may bring unsettled and gloomier weather, this week is set to be a glorious summer week warmed by the hot June sun.

Eastern coasts will remain relatively cooler than average, while many areas in the west will experience warmer weather.
There are indications that the high-pressure system influencing Britain’s weather might shift eastward during the latter half of the week, the Met Office said.
This change could bring south easterly winds that draw in warm air from nearby continents.
As a result, the weather could become hotter and more humid, potentially reaching temperatures in the mid to high 20s, especially in the southern regions, before the weekend.

This increase in temperature brings the possibility of scattered showers or thunderstorms in the southwest on Friday and Saturday, although the certainty of these developments is currently uncertain.
Met Office Chief Meteorologist, Paul Gundersen, said: “As with last week, the sunniest and warmest weather will be to the west of the UK with cooler, cloudier conditions persisting in the east for the next few days.
“The cloud will push inland across the country overnight, burning back to the east coast by day.
“Cloud amounts may vary day to day which will affect the feel of the weather in some areas.
“There is a small risk of an isolated shower across northern areas on Wednesday.”
While some people enjoy dry and settled weather, it also leads to higher pollen levels.
Currently, pollen levels are high across the southern UK, with a slight decrease further north where levels range from low to moderate.
