New UK Weather Maps Reveal What’s Coming"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Hot weather is forecast to return to parts of the UK next week, with temperatures expected to climb above 35C in several counties<\/strong>. Weather maps suggest southern and eastern England will experience the highest temperatures as a new spell of heat develops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temperatures Set to Rise Across Southern and Eastern England<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The latest WXCharts weather maps<\/a> indicate that temperatures will gradually increase over the coming days, with the hottest conditions expected around Wednesday, August 12.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forecast data produced by Metdesk suggests temperatures could reach 36C<\/strong> in parts of southern and eastern England<\/strong>. Much of the region is expected to exceed 30C<\/strong>, while parts of the Midlands and northern England<\/strong> could also experience unusually hot conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scotland and Northern Ireland<\/strong> are forecast to remain cooler, with temperatures generally staying in the low to mid-20s<\/strong>. Wales is also expected to enjoy dry and sunny weather, although temperatures there are likely to remain below those recorded in eastern England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fourteen Counties Could Exceed 35C<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to the latest forecasts, temperatures of 35C or higher<\/strong> could be recorded in parts of the following counties: Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Kent, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire, Surrey, Sussex and Suffolk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the forecasts are confirmed, these areas would experience some of the highest temperatures recorded this summer. Weather models may still change over the coming days, but forecasters expect a widespread period of hot and settled weather across much of England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thunderstorm Risk Before the Heat Builds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before the hotter conditions become established, some parts of the UK are expected to see unsettled weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Met Office<\/a> has issued a yellow thunderstorm warning covering parts of Angus, Perth and Kinross, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Moray<\/strong> and Highland<\/strong>. Slow-moving heavy showers and thunderstorms could bring local disruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rain is also expected across parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland during the middle of the week before higher temperatures return to many areas. Earlier this week, the Met Office recorded a high of 33.5C in Wisley, Surrey<\/strong>, highlighting the return of very warm conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Over the next 10 days, there's an increased chance of rain across the UK, but with high pressure remaining, the wettest conditions will be in north western areas.

Temperatures are expected to rise into the middle of next week.
