June 5th 2024.
Summer has finally arrived, and while the weather may have been a bit gloomy with all the rain and thunderstorms, May actually turned out to be the warmest month on record since the late 1800s, according to the Met Office. And it looks like June is going to continue with the trend of warmer temperatures.
According to InMeteo, an Italian weather service, the next couple of weeks will see a steady increase in temperature. In fact, by June 15, parts of Britain could reach up to 30°C, as reported by the Daily Mirror. While the actual temperature may not reach that high, the humidity in the air will make it feel warmer than it actually is.
Londoners can expect temperatures as high as 25°C, but with the humidity, it may feel more like 27°C or even 30°C. The northwest of the country will experience the hottest temperatures, with the heat being felt in Norfolk, Cambridgeshire, Humberside, and Herefordshire as well.
The Met Office, however, is not as optimistic about the heat. As forecasters are constantly changing their predictions, it is difficult to say for certain what the weather will be like beyond the first half of June. Currently, the Met Office is predicting a few showers in the north and northeast from June 9 to June 18, while the rest of the country will enjoy dry and sunny conditions. After this period, a high pressure system is expected to bring settled weather to the entire country, with periods of sunshine and dry conditions.
However, towards the end of the month, the Met Office warns that the dry conditions may begin to decline, with a greater chance of more unsettled weather developing. If this happens, the north and west of the country will see the most rain, while the south and east will remain drier.
Despite the uncertainty in the long-range forecast, the Met Office does predict that temperatures may be slightly above average towards June 18. And for those of us craving some warmth and sunshine, even a slight increase in temperature is something to look forward to.
As for today's weather, it will be cool and breezy in the north, with a chance of showers. The south, on the other hand, will remain dry with some sunny spells. However, in a surprising turn of events, parts of the Scottish Highlands may even see some snowfall. But overall, it looks like summer is here to stay, and we'll take any bit of warmth we can get in the UK.
