If you've been patiently waiting for summer, then you are not going

to enjoy the second half of this weather forecast. But for the next

24 hours there is something to smile about. For most places

tomorrow it will be another fine summer's day. There will be one or

two showers around, they are now fizzling out across Northern

Ireland and Scotland, and for most it will be a dry night with long,

clear spells. Temperatures could drop down to single figures in some

towns and cities. Any early morning mist will be just that, clearing

pretty quickly. However, on the east coast of Scotland there is the

threat of low cloud. But for many across Scotland and Northern

Ireland it will be a sparkling start to the date. Sunny spells

across northern England, most of Wales, and East Anglia. We will see

a change in south-west England, more cloud arriving here, so the

sunshine will be rather hazy. They could be one of two scattered

showers across Devon and Cornwall. In land elsewhere cloud will bubble

up and we will see one or two showers across northern England,

Northern Ireland and Scotland, but they will be well scattered. Most

places fine and warm, warmer than today. It might well be the warmest

day since May. Noticeably cool on some of those North Sea coasts. The

coast is a good place to head if you suffer from grass pollen. High

or very high levels across England and Wales in particular tomorrow.

It looks fine if you are treading on the turf at Ascot but then we

start to see the change, Ladies' Day. The weather charts for

Thursday look far from pretty. A big area of low pressure promising

some heavy rain. It could cause some problems on Wednesday night

across Wales and south-west England. This area of low pressure swings a

band of heavy rain northwards during the day on Thursday, pushing

across northern England, southern Scotland and Northern Ireland. It

will be followed by a whole host of blustery showers. The winds remain
