Read our privacy policy The UK is set to experience another warm spell by the end of this week but after some more thunderstorms and showers lash the country, the Met Office forecast suggested. However, another warm spell is on the charts when temperatures could rise slightly higher than average even as the meteorological summer season ends and autumn begins, and before mid-September brings more unsettled conditions as Britain feels the impacts of the Atlantic “hurricane season”. On Wednesday, the Met Office forecast said a mixture of sunshine and scattered showers are expected across the UK, with some showers possibly getting heavy in eastern England. But in the extended outlook, the Met Office forecast suggests a return to changeable weather patterns as autumn sets and the Atlantic hurricane season begins, with northern and western areas more susceptible to fluctuations.
