August heatwave could follow July washout
Rain and gales to give way to hot August

By Ruth Doherty, Jul 27, 2015

The disappointing July washout is set to give way to a heatwave in early August.

Just as we packed away the BBQ and the summer furniture, it could be time to get them out of the shed again as forecasters suggest the recent torrential rain and wind will be replaced by sun.

Leon Brown, meteorologist at The Weather Channel, told Aol Travel: "Temperatures will warm up over the south later next week.

"The weekend of 1 August currently looks better with more sunshine and warmer with temperatures in the low 20s."

Speaking to the Mirror, James Madden, forecaster for Exacta Weather, goes one better and suggests a return to the searing heatwave we saw in June. He said: "The transition to warmer and more settled conditions is likely to see temperatures surging to heatwave conditions for many parts of the country during the early part of August as high pressure becomes dominant across our shores.

"This pattern change is likely to be quite significant and it will lead us in to a largely settled August with periods of warm to very hot weather for many, in particular in parts of the south."

But we've got a week of unsettled weather to get through before we feel the sun
