Monday will see a wall or rain hit the UK but things are about to change once again
The UK has seen changeable weather over the past few days, with sunny spells interspersed by heavy rain in parts, including the north west and Greater Manchester.
And according to the Met Office, Monday (June 9) will see a similar pattern as skies are forecast to turn increasingly cloudy as the day goes on.
The Met Office says: “Rain will spread in from the west, moving across Northern Ireland, Scotland and parts of northern England and Wales.”
For Greater Manchester, the chances of rain will also increase as the day goes on, with the latest weather maps showing heavy rain is expected to affect the region by late evening tonight.
This wall of rain is set to continue to clear to the east in the early hours of Tuesday (June 10).
More humid conditions are expected for Tuesday across the UK, with brighter skies in northern areas.
Around Greater Manchester, Tuesday’s temperatures are expected to peak around 18C around late afternoon, a few degrees higher than Monday.
However, the outlook changes again from Wednesday (June 11) to Friday (June 13), as the Met Office forecasts temperatures turning increasingly warm and humid across the UK.
The latest weather maps show Wednesday is predicted to be the hottest day of the week, with temperatures around the mid-20s, including 24C for Greater Manchester at its peak.
While this will bring plenty of dry and fine weather, but thundery showers are forecast to move northwards during Thursday and later on Friday.
Going forward into June, weather modelling suggests that the UK could be in for a heatwave as temperatures could soar.
Both the Met Office and BBC weather forecasters are predicting strong indications of high temperatures across the UK.
And, according to GFS weather model maps, temperatures are set to rise from June 20 when they could hit 30C in northern parts of the country and 31C in the south.
The high temperatures are reportedly set to continue on June 21, forecasters say, and could go as high as 32C in southern England while the north-west could see 30C, the Mirror reports.
June 22 is also predicted to be hot, as temperatures remain in the thirties on the south coast, and temperature anomaly maps show this is expected to be above the seasonal average.
