UK's weather forecast

According to Express, Britain will see a swift return to scorching weather as a subtropical heatwave is forecast to hit the country this week.

September temperatures will rocket into the high twenties due to a 600-mile subtropical swell. The hot Atlantic air is set to sweep over the UK towards the beginning of this week.

Brian Gaze, The Weather Outlook forecaster, said the south east of the country may experience temperatures of 26C. But before the heatwave strikes the UK, rain is forecast across Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Alex Burkill, Met Office Meteorologist, said: “The weather is going to be quite changeable this coming week with the rain at times."

“Though we should see something a little bit warmer during the middle part of the week before things turn unsettled by the weekend.”

Monday morning will bring cooler temperatures before warmer weather starts on Tuesday.

Mr Burkill said: “Clear skies towards the south will allow it to turn quite chilly perhaps with some patches of mist and fog first thing on Monday morning."

“Monday then getting off to a fine start across many parts of England and Wales. However, the cloud and rain across parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland will be heavy at times and push further south eastwards with some strong winds as well in the southeast.”

The south east of Britain will start to see some of the promising warmer weather as temperatures start to increase on Monday.

Mr Burkill added: “That’s where it’s likely to stay driest and sunniest for the longest and so temperatures could reach highs of 23C possibly even 24C here. However, as we go through Monday evening the cloud is going to spread here."

“Elsewhere the rain should break up a little bit and become a little lighter perhaps with some late sunshine across parts of Scotland.”

The signs of a return to hot weather are a drastic change to last month’s blustery weather.

August saw two named storms hit Britain in quick succession which brought strong winds and heavy rain. Storms Ellen and Francis brought 70mph winds in some exposed coastal areas.

According to the Met Office, June, July and August have been wetter than average for Britain. But September could bring some hopes for an Indian summer.

Mr Fawkes said: "North western areas of Europe will have heavy breezy if not windy weather as we go through Monday."

"A weather system moving across the UK may bring with it some rain in Northern Ireland and parts of Wales, that rain will push on into Norway as well. There are also some thunderstorms for west Russia and Belarus."

"There is an area of pressure that is going to be bringing some potentially severe thunderstorms for the Balearic Islands, particularly in Mallorca and Ibiza."

"Over the next couple of days, the storm is capable of bringing some flash flooding so we will have to watch out for those."

He continued: "Otherwise across southern France and into Italy the weather becomes drier and increasingly sunny as we head on into Tuesday."

"There is lots of sunshine to for Greece and Turkey with temperatures well up into the low to mid 30s. There will still be severe thunderstorms still hanging around the Balearic Islands on Tuesday."

The weather in Britain at the start of this week is expected to be dry before becoming increasingly wet and windy towards the weekend.

Although temperatures will remain mixed, forecasters are predicting warmer conditions in the south.

Commenting on the forecast between September 7-13, the BBC said: "After a potentially dry and settled start to the week, low pressure will become the dominating feature of our weather from midweek onwards.

"The second half of the week will often be wet and windy, and with temperatures likely to close to or below where they should be for this time of year."

"In fact, there is the potential for a deep area of low pressure to move right across the UK, bringing strong winds and heavy rain."

"If this were to pan out, further damage and disruption could be expected, following on from recent storms, Storm Ellen and Storm Francis."

"That being said, there is a slight chance that low pressure remains away to the west of the British Isles and over the Atlantic."

"In this scenario, it would be a much drier and calmer week, and also much warmer, with a plume of warm air pushing up from the south."
