Much of this period is looking dry across most of the UK, with clear or sunny spells for many areas, as high pressure likely dominates the weather pattern across the UK. However, at the start of this period, thicker cloud with some rain or showers, which could be heavy and thundery, is likely to affect at least the southwest of the UK, with a chance that more of the UK gets affected on Tuesday. The end of this period may also be more unsettled, particularly towards the south or southwest, with rain or showers possible again. Winds will mostly be light with daytime temperatures likely to be slightly above normal overall, although there is a chance of some chilly nights in places.

Fairly typical weather for the time of year is most likely through this period. Overall, fine and dry weather is more likely to dominate, more particularly towards the south or southeast, although this is likely to be interspersed with occasional spells of rain and showers for all parts, with a risk of heavy rain and thunderstorms in places. Overall, temperatures will most likely be near or slightly above average.
