The GFS shows 28°C in parts of the south on Friday and Saturday (or 29 for the latter on some versions of the charts - perhaps a graphics/resolution issue?)
MetO and GFS concur on this, after which we will be reminded that we are an island off the eastern shore of an ocean, and more subject to Atlantic influences than continental ones. GEFS shows temps back down to average, not much rain in the south, rather more in the north, and GFS charts for a week ahead showing LP off the Atlantic having a major influence.
But in the meantime, I'm looking forward to tonight's thunder. Widespread heavy rain moving up on a line from Bournemouth to Coventry in the early hours before the disturbance breaks up, with some very intense cells on the eastern edge e.g. for Reading and Cambridge (with as always the word of caution that thunderstorms have a mind of their own)

(We seem to be due a thunderstorm and three fine days, not the traditional three fine days and a thunderstorm)
