High pressure is set to dominate the UK by this weekend, bringing fine, dry, and very warm or hot weather with light winds for most, though breezier in the far south. After a spell of cooler, cloudy, and murky conditions in the north, especially along coasts, it will turn clearer and warmer here too. Early next week, there's an increased chance of very hot conditions in the south, possibly with rain or thundery showers. Once this clears, changeable weather is more likely, with outbreaks of rain (most frequent in the west) and warm, dry interludes with sunny spells. Toward the end of this period, there are some indications of an increased chance of more generally unsettled weather developing, though confidence at this range is typically low.

High pressure, and therefore largely settled conditions, appear more likely overall, however there are some indications that a period of more unsettled weather could develop early in this period. Although dry weather is likely to dominate, periods of rain or showers and thunderstorms will likely develop at times. Above average temperatures overall seem most likely but there may be some fresher interludes in the north at first. There remains potential for further hot spells to develop, especially in the east and south. By the turn of the month, there are signals for high pressure to become less dominant with perhaps a greater chance of some rain, though there is some uncertainty in this aspect of the forecast.
