Wet weather and gusty winds are about to return to the UK next week but forecasters are quietly confident that the warm weather will return in time for the Jubilee weekend.
According to the Met office, temperatures could climb to 24C (75.2F) tomorrow (Sunday, May 22) in London, but by next week rain and strong winds are expected to sweep across most of the country as a result of the strengthening of the jet stream. Deputy chief meteorologist Dan Rudman said: “The strengthening of the jet stream increases the chances of low pressure systems developing over the Atlantic being pushed towards the UK.
“Although there are still some details to be determined on the depth and timings of these lows, what we do know is that there’s some unsettled weather on the way next week, with some strong winds likely from the middle of the week, especially in the north. Weather of this nature isn’t unusual in a UK spring, with changes in the jet stream frequently bringing interludes of unsettled weather.”
