Shetland dry today, chance of showers across Orkney.
Some bright spells across Shetland otherwise a rather cloudy day. Shetland will be largely dry but Orkney may see some rain at times until early afternoon. Light west or southwesterly winds. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
This evening will be dry with some brightness. Then the rest of the night will remain dry with variable amounts of cloud. Light west or southwesterly winds. Minimum temperature 9 °C.
A bright start across Shetland otherwise cloudy with some showery rain spreading from the west. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
Cloudy on Friday and Saturday with rain at times along with some misty low cloud. Little change into Sunday.
Updated:
Cloud and rain associated with an Atlantic frontal system and area of low pressure is likely to sweep south and east, with rain always most persistent on western hills, especially western Scotland where large rainfall totals may have built up by this time. Eastern areas in shelter could see warm and humid brighter breaks, but with a risk of thundery showers, which could be slow moving at first. Likely turning cooler and more showery into next week, followed by a changeable pattern with further areas of cloud and rain and brighter, more settled spells in-between. Temperatures are likely to be around average overall, with an increasing chance of warmth in the south as the period progresses.
Updated:
Changeable conditions with a predominantly northwest to southeast split in temperature and rainfall, and the potential for further occasional episodes of hot weather and thundery outbreaks, are considered likely to gradually give way to something more settled and dry overall through the second half of July. Temperatures are likely to be above average, with the greatest chance of very warm or hot spells in the south or southeast.
