Today: Early low cloud and mist retreating to coasts, leaving most places dry with sunny spells throughout, again becoming very warm. Chance of a shower in East Anglia in the morning, then isolated heavy or thundery showers developing central England later.

Tonight: A few heavy showers continuing along the spine of Britain, but otherwise dry and mild. Low cloud and mist once again spreading inland in many areas.

Thursday: Another very warm day. Staying dry with prolonged sunny spells for most after early low cloud clears, but isolated heavy showers still possible in southern England and along the Pennines.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday: Generally dry and sunny. Still warm, but feeling fresher where exposed to the brisk easterly breeze. Turning cloudier with rain in the far southwest on Sunday.
