Low pressure over northern France is bringing pretty unsettled day from West Midlands south and east with a band of persistent rain and raw NNW wind blowing off the North Sea. Outwith the immediate rain band it’s showery, thundery downpours you are contending with. Further north and eventually west through the afternoon it’s sunny or mostly sunny.

For a second day in a row it looks like the Glasgow area should reach 21C making it the UK’s warm spot compared to London’s 14-16C.

The heat wave continues over the southern continent but is becoming restricted to southeast Europe as fresher Atlantic air reaches the western Med.
