Wrexham (Wrexham) weather

Headline:

A mainly dry week ahead and very warm or hot.

Today:

Hazy sunshine through this morning but skies gradually clouding over from the west. Scattered showers may develop later, perhaps giving a few rumbles of thunder and flashes of lightning, especially by this evening. Very warm and increasingly humid for many. Maximum temperature 27 °C.

Tonight:

Scattered showers breaking out this evening, with flashes of lightning possible. Many places remaining largely dry overnight however and staying warm and humid making for an uncomfortable night for sleeping. Minimum temperature 15 °C.

Tuesday:

Some cloud first thing, perhaps with a rogue thundery shower. Becoming sunnier through the morning, with a hot and sunny afternoon expected. Breezy in places. Maximum temperature 32 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Very warm and mostly sunny on Wednesday with isolated showers or thunderstorms. Cloudier and fresher on Thursday with a few showers possible. Dry and warm on Friday with sunny spells.

High pressure will likely build leading to a period of fairly dry and settled weather for many at first, with a few light showers in the north. There may however be some heavy, thundery showers over the weekend, especially in the south. Temperatures will likely remain above normal, and much of the south could still see warm or very warm temperatures for at least a couple of days. There is a possibility that the heat could last further into the week, especially in the south. Beyond this high pressure will likely continue leading to plenty of fine weather, perhaps with the odd heavy shower or thunderstorm. Temperatures will likely continue to be above normal but there are some signs of fresher conditions developing in the north later.

High pressure, and therefore largely settled conditions overall, appears more likely at first. Although dry weather is likely to dominate, periods of rain or showers and thunderstorms may 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.
