Met Office weather maps show date heatwave to cool and rain to arrive

A change is on the way for the weather in the UK, with rain and lower temperatures showing on Met Office weather maps and forecast.

While Friday is set to be hot and dry, with temperatures in south-east Wales hitting 26°C or 27°C, it may start to cool down in the coming days with temperatures still warm and above average but not as high as they have been in the last week.

The Met Office said for the vast majority of the UK Friday will see more dry and sunny conditions with temperatures widely into the mid-20°Cs, possibly peaking around 28°C . From Friday afternoon the hint of an upcoming change in weather type is likely to affect western parts of Northern Ireland at first with thundery showers likely and a possibility of some heavy bursts of rain seeing around 25mm of rain possibly falling within an hour in some spots.
