Sunny spells and scattered showers Monday, these locally heavy, but some places staying dry. Fewer showers on Tuesday and Wednesday. Feeling warm in the sunshine with winds easing.

Initially fine conditions will likely prevail for most, with more changeable conditions with cloud and some rain being confined to the far north and northwest, temperatures will likely be close to or slightly above average. However, there is a small chance of an alternative scenario that initially an area of cloud could edge northwestwards from Europe and bring a couple of days of thundery rain and fairly hot / humid conditions to the southeast. Into the last week of June, changeable conditions are likely, with the focus for these conditions being across the north and west, with spells of more settled and drier conditions likely in the south and east. Nationwide, temperatures are expected to be close to or slightly above average.

There is little sign for any one type of weather pattern to dominate during this period. As such, typical conditions for the UK are most probable with a mixture of weather types. All areas can expected to see some spells of drier, sunnier weather, but there will also be showers or longer spells of rain at times. Currently the only signals, weak as they are, hint that rain and showers will tend to be more biased towards the north and west, with any more prolonged drier interludes favouring the south. Temperatures are most likely to be close to or slightly above climatological average.
