Yes, you heard that right! But don't be quick to pack your sunscreen just yet, as this sweltering heat is expected to end with a wall of rain and the potential for dramatic thunderstorms.

The Current Temperature Surge

Weather forecasts are indicating that from the latest satellite maps generated by WX Charts, counties located in the southern regions of England, along with the Midlands and East Anglia, will experience extreme temperatures between 31°C to 35°C by 6 PM on Monday (June 30). Can you imagine stepping out into the sun with such heat engulfing you? It’s as if the sun itself has dialed up its intensity just for us!

Regional Temperature Variations

Not everyone will bask in the high-temperature glory, though. The South West and West Wales are predicted to feel a cooler breeze, with temperatures lingering between 19°C to 24°C. Meanwhile, up north, places like Cumbria will feel refreshingly cooler with temperatures around 22°C, whereas parts of North East Scotland are expected to hover around 24°C. It’s fascinating how the UK can boast such diverse microclimates within such a small geographical area!

Rain is on the Horizon

Now, before you start celebrating the heat, let's talk about the flip side. The weather maps reveal a considerable band of rain that's set to sweep across almost all of Scotland and Northern Ireland by Monday evening. The drama doesn’t stop there; ominous clouds of thunderstorms are anticipated to roll across many parts of England and Wales. It’s almost like nature is putting on a show, giving you everything from blazing heat to cooling showers!

Evening Weather Forecast

By 9 PM, the rain is expected to mostly restrict itself to the eastern regions of England and the Midlands, including Scotland. So, if you have plans for an evening walk, make sure to keep an umbrella handy! Otherwise, you might find yourself running for cover as the skies open up. You'll feel like you're in one of those classic British dramas, waiting for the “perfect” moment to escape the downpour.
