Met Office confirm Liverpool weather set for shift after scorching heatwave

The Met Office has confirmed the weather in Liverpool will soon shift.

Scorching conditions have arrived on Merseyside this week as temperature haves hovered in the high 20s. Tomorrow is set to be another sunny day in the region with highs of 26C forecast.

However, forecasters warned that "unsettled" conditions will arrive in the UK over the weekend. Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Steven Keates said: “Over the coming days we’ll be transitioning to a more unsettled regime for the UK, though temperatures will remain high and it’ll feel very humid for many.

“Heavy showers and thunderstorms are likely to become more frequent through the weekend, with the potential for associated hail, lightning and some gusty winds. While the focus of thundery showers on Friday afternoon will be Northern Ireland, that risk spreads more widely across western and southern areas of the UK on Saturday, before pushing further north on Sunday. As in many of these situations, these showers can be hit or miss, with some places avoiding them whilst other areas nearby may see some very wet conditions.”

“There’s an ongoing likelihood of warnings being issued in the coming days, so keep an eye on the weather forecast for the latest outlook.”

The full outlook for Saturday to Monday for the North West said: "A return to unsettled conditions over the weekend and on Monday with an increasing risk of heavy and thundery showers. Warm or locally hot, and feeling more humid."
