Met Office reveals exact dates when 'very hot' weather could return
Blazing sunshine is on the way again with the Met Office revealing exactly when 'very hot' weather could blast a large chunk of the UK - with above-average temperatures likely After weeks of unsettled spells and patchy sunshine, Britain could finally be gearing up for a serious burst of summer - with forecasters hinting a spell of "very hot" weather is on the horizon. The Met Office said a return to more prolonged dry and sunny conditions is possible in early August, with high pressure expected to build - especially across southern areas of the country. Forecasters say the second week of the month could bring a more settled pattern nationwide, with above-average temperatures and the potential for warm to hot spells, particularly in the southeast. According to a temperature anomaly map by WXCharts, much of the South East - including London - as well as parts of the South West, will be hotter than usual for the time of year on August 9. The Met Office's long-range forecast from August 9 until August 23 reads: "While westerly winds will bring changeable conditions at times, some settled spells are likely to develop during August. "These bringing more prolonged dry and sunny weather, especially across the south of the country but potentially spreading to all areas at times. Temperatures will likely be near or above average overall. There is a chance of some very warm or hot spells, especially in the south and east." Advanced weather modelling maps by WXCharts echoes the Met Office's predictions, showing a surge in temperatures beginning Saturday August 9 from 6pm, with the mercury rising dramatically across the country. In London, temperatures could peak at a sweltering 28C, while parts of Gloucestershire, including Cheltenham and the Cotswolds, are forecast to top out at a scorching 31C. Other hotspots include Cambridge, Peterborough, Northampton, Bath and Bristol, which could reach 29C. Southampton, Cardiff, Nottingham, Stoke-on-Trent, Derby, and Wolverhampton are set to follow closely behind at 28C. Kent and Essex could meanwhile see maximum temperatures of 27C while Manchester could enjoy balmy highs of 25C. The forecast comes after a brief period of unsettled spells, with showers also set to fall across parts of the UK this weekend and early next week. BBC Weather's forecast for August 4 to 10 states: "During the first full week of August, opposing weather patterns are still possible. Consequently, some long-term weather trends still indicate ongoing cooler and changeable conditions, with temperatures close to the seasonal average. The latter would be consistent with the synoptic setup described for the end of the previous week. "However, there is growing confidence in a potential change to the prevailing weather pattern on a larger scale. For example, a stronger high-pressure ridge or an elongated high-pressure zone could move over parts of the United Kingdom and into western continental Europe. "In line with this, temperatures could climb above or even well above average, particularly in the south and south-east of the country. Additionally, a drier and calmer spell may return. " Scotland and perhaps Northern Ireland could remain somewhat wetter and windier, with slightly cooler conditions."

UK hot weather forecast as temperatures set to soar above sweltering 30C
New weather maps have revealed what major cities could be hit by scorching temperatures of up to 31C. It comes after areas across the UK have been dampened by rain Brits have been told to get out their hats and sunglasses as temperatures could climb back up to 30C due to an Iberian plume next month. New weather maps, from WXCharts, have revealed what major cities are set to heat up from as early as August 6. The charts, which are covered in red to symbolise sweltering conditions, showed that southern and south-eastern England could experience highs of 31C. After the short spell, the balmy temperatures could re-appear later this month. According to the maps, hot air will move from southwestern Europe from August 1, causing a wrath of heat to hit several cities. Birmingham and Gloucester are likely to be plunged under the conditions first. The town of Reading has also been mapped for hot temperatures. London, Southampton and Brighton are also expected to be hit by the sizzling conditions, with a fourth heatwave on the cards. However, before tropical temperatures return, parts of the UK could experience showers and fierce winds. The Met Office's long-range forecast, from July 29 to August 7, states: "A weather regime dominated by westerly winds is likely at first. This will likely bring rain and showers at times interspersed with periods of more settled weather. The north and west will most likely be the focus of any wetter and windier weather, where there may be some prolonged spells of rain at times. The highest chance of drier and sunnier weather is expected across southern and eastern parts of the country. "Through the period, high pressure may start to have greater influence as it builds northeast across the country. This bringing more prolonged settled spells to many areas. Breeziest conditions across the north of the country. Temperatures generally near average though with some warmer spells likely." The forecast, from August 8 to August 22, said: "While westerly winds will bring changeable conditions at times, some settled spells are likely to develop during August. These bringing more prolonged dry and sunny weather, especially across the south of the country but potentially spreading to all areas at times. Temperatures will likely be near or above average overall. There is a chance of some very warm or hot spells, especially in the south and east."

Will there be a heatwave this weekend? Latest UK weather forecast
After an erratic summer of heatwaves and torrential downpours, warm weather is forecast to return to the UK. The Met Office said parts of England are set to enjoy highs of up to 28C on Friday, with most of the country set for temperatures in the low to mid-20s. 'The best of the sunshine, the sunniest skies, will be across more central, southern, south-eastern England,' said meteorologist Alex Burkill. 'It was pretty wet here across parts of East Anglia, London and the South East yesterday. It's [now] a much drier, brighter picture. 'The sunniest skies, though, will be across some more central parts. And it's here that we are going to get the highest temperatures, [up to] 26 and 27. Maybe 28 Celsius. 'Even elsewhere, yes it's a few degrees lower than this, but if you do catch any of those bright sunny spells, temperatures should get into the low, possibly mid-20s for quite a few places. 'So feeling pretty warm, as you would expect at this time of year.' There have been three heatwaves already this summer, with temperatures climbing to almost 36C in Kent at the start of the month. In April, the UK also enjoyed a record amount of sunshine. But the jet stream that has brought on this weather has since dipped southwards, pushing areas of low pressure towards British shores, and sudden downpours have followed. Hosepipe bans, however, have remained in place after the driest spring in over a century. Moving into the weekend, an area of high pressure is expected to extend from the Azores archipelago in the mid-Atlantic and could influence the weather in the UK. It could mean a more dry weather and sunshine, especially in the south and west of the UK. There should also be fewer showers. But a heatwave is not expected to hit the UK this weekend. Temperatures will climb but top out in the mid-20s. For Saturday's forecast, the Met Office wrote: 'Cloud and outbreaks still moving slowly and erratically southeastwards across England, turning heavy across southeast England later. 'Elsewhere sunny spells and a scattering of showers. Near average temperatures.' They added: 'Sunny spells and showers on Sunday. Mostly dry Monday, with sunny spells. Breezy with showery rain in the northwest on Tuesday, dry elsewhere. Temperatures around average, warm in the south.'
