Wondering where the rain has emigrated to? The answer is nearer than you may think! Thunderstorms with frequent lightning have been affecting parts of France and central Europe today. High pressure will continue to block these from moving into the UK though ⛈️

Not everywhere is basking in sunshine today, as cloud brings some light rain in the east ☔ For many though, sunny spells, with blue skies across much of the south 😎 Feeling a touch cooler in northerly winds, but the southwest still holds onto rather warm weather ☀️

As high pressure shifts, the warmest weather will move westwards Brisk easterly winds also develop, bringing cooler conditions in the south and east Strong winds at times around southern coasts can create hazards in the water, so stay safe if you're heading to the beach 🌊
