Charts show the good weather continues for a week, maybe up to 10 days. Including maybe some warmer weather next week.

I'm a bit rusty. What does that mean again?!

It's an impossible chart - but it would mean some VERY windy and VERY wet weather.

However, it indicates the Atlantic is likely to takeover in that timeframe. This weekend remains very good looking.

My guess is that will fizzle out the closer it gets - hopefully the high pressure we've got at the moment will keep that at bay. Not ready for a re-run of last Autumn yet

Looking like pleasant warm mostly dry weather for 10 days+ for me. The courgettes have resurrected themselves - they are never wrong!

Currently working in Barcelona. Seems to have been quite nice today, 28degrees or so but not seen a lot of it. It was nice and sunny about 6pm when I finished. Back to Blighty on Friday, so hope the good weather you are rumoured to be having continues

A week back at home, and then off to San Francisco for a week. Should be good weather at home when I am away, it always is when I am off somewhere warm, especially if it an expensive holiday - guaranteed UK heatwave!! Was in Cuba when we had the good UK weather a couple of months ago...

Adios Amigos!

Sorry, I've neglected my weather duties and turned my attention to the bungabunga party in Iceland

Tuesday should be good still, however the signals are starting to show the weather will become more 'Atlantic' starting in the SW around Tuesday. So I'm going to call 80% chance of good weather in the SE on Tues

[lowdrag]

We have Americans staying a dined outside until 9pm. Tomorrow another balmy 25C is forecast.

Looks like things will be warming up in to this week, and the reason for any rain Thurs/Fri is unstable air masses - ie it will be heavy local downpours and thunder.

If I get a chance I'll take a deeper look for Sat (I'm now in the US)

Tbh occasional showers aren't to bad can manage with that, rain all day though is a different story. Hopefully rain will stay away.

Some impressive fork lightning over Basingstoke at the moment.. And some pretty heavy rain!

Some good old thunder rumbling around Kingsclere in North Hampshire

Lovely day in Gerrards Cross, South Bucks today!

Puggit, I have been keeping my eye on this the last few days.
