The high pressure loses its grip this week and we will be back into cooler changeable weather at the weekend. Monday will start sunny but unlike previous days cloud will build up and there is a good chance of some thundery showers breaking out in the afternoon. These showers where they occur, could be heavy. Sunshine again on Tuesday but again the likelihood of some possibly heavy showers in the afternoon. Fair weather returns on Wednesday and Thursday with temperatures close to 20° again. A decent day for Friday too but the tendency for it to cloud up during the day and some rain is due overnight. So a wet start to Saturday with outbreaks of rain but it will brighten up in the evening. Sunshine and (light) showers for Sunday. Prospects for next week is for unsettled weather.
