Dry weather to continue across most of UK as heatwave comes to an end
Dry weather is set to continue for most of the UK following last week's heatwave. Parts of the country could see temperatures reach 27C on Monday and Tuesday. A northeasterly breeze means northern and eastern parts of the UK will be cooler on these days, reaching up to the low-20s. Some showers with the odd rumble of thunder could hit south-west England and south Wales on Monday and Tuesday, but most places will be dry throughout the week. Wetter, windier and more unsettled weather may move in from the Atlantic by Bank Holiday Monday. The continued dry spell comes after officials warned England was suffering from 'nationally significant' water shortfalls, despite rain in July. Sunday's highest temperature was 27.7C in Somerset, while West Sussex and Inverness, Scotland, also reached 27C. Met Office meteorologist Greg Dewhurst said: 'Where people get the sunshine it'll still feel fairly pleasant, it'll just be a bit chillier than it has been of late.' He added: 'We had a couple of cooler days, yesterday (and) the day before. 'The odd spot here and there might be just holding on to a heatwave, but I think most places have dipped below their criteria and may have sort of come up again. 'I would say (the heatwave) finished over the weekend.' Clouds are expected to arrive later in the week and the cooler air in the north and east will travel towards southern and western areas. Maximum temperatures will fall to 23C to 24C by Wednesday and Thursday. But the temperatures could push back up to the high-20s by the weekend, particularly during sunny spells, caused by the winds turning southerly. The national drought group, which includes the Met Office, regulators, government, water companies and other organisations, said on Tuesday that it had met as five areas of the country remained in drought, with six more in prolonged dry weather status. England is seeing widespread environmental and agricultural impacts from the lack of water, which is hitting crop yields, reducing feed for livestock, damaging wetlands and river wildlife, and increasing wildfires, the group said. Experts warn climate change is driving more extreme weather conditions in the UK, worsening drought and dry spells, and making heatwaves more frequent and severe.

The eight places that are set to avoid 600-mile rain storm
The UK's summer has been a mixed bag of weather, with the unpredictable forecasts set to continue as temperatures are predicted to plummet and rainstorms loom. Weather maps reveal a 600-mile band of rain is poised to batter the UK in less than a fortnight, leaving all but eight counties bracing for wet and chilly conditions. The unsettled weather is due to kick off on 27 August, with predictions indicating that the East Midlands and southern Scotland will bear the brunt of the heaviest downpours. READ MORE: Mum left with just £1 after phone call cost her £10,500 READ MORE: DVLA driving licence change takes effect in August affecting thousands of drivers According to WXCharts weather maps, Aberdeenshire, Somerset, Middlesex, Kent, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire are the only areas likely to escape the impending rainfall. Currently, the UK is enjoying its fourth heatwave of the summer, with mercury levels reaching up to 30C in some regions. However, the incoming weather front could see temperatures plunge to a chilly 5C in central Scotland and around 10C in parts of England. The rainfall is expected to persist for approximately 24 hours, intensifying to around 3mm per hour in northern England on 28 August, while largely retreating from the south, according to the Express. While the impending rainstorm signifies a shift from the hot and sunny conditions enjoyed by most of the country earlier this month, it's just the latest in a series of fluctuating weather patterns this summer, characterised by scorching highs and disruptive downpours. The Met Office has issued yellow thunderstorm warnings for a large portion of north-eastern Scotland and eastern Northern Ireland on Thursday. With the heatwave conditions persisting, there have been alerts about challenging driving conditions, potential disruptions to power supplies and public transport, as well as a risk of flooding. The weather forecaster's outlook for the rest of the month is similarly marked by potential upheaval, brought on by areas of low pressure advancing from the Atlantic. Its long-range forecast for 19 to 28 August indicates: "This brings an increasing possibility of stronger winds and rain, some of which could be heavy and thundery, especially for southern and western areas, but this perhaps becoming more widespread with time." The Met Office's predictions for the period between 29 August and 12 September also caution of "unsettled conditions with showers or longer spells of rain", with the possibility of "heavy and thundery rain and strong winds". It goes on to mention that temperatures will generally stay above average, but with the likelihood of sporadic hot spells in the south. Earlier this week, the UK experienced yellow heat alerts in seven regions in England, as the country has been grappling with heatwaves throughout the season. The yellow alerts highlight a potential increase in fatalities "particularly among those ages 65 and over or with health conditions", according to the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA). Upon issuance, the warning indicates potential strain on health services, with internal temperatures in hospitals and care homes possibly surpassing the "recommended threshold for clinical risk assessment", and potential effects on the workforce's capacity to provide services.
