Even though the fresher feel on Monday might make you think that we’ve “had our summer”, the reality is that temperatures are now actually closer to the seasonal average – around 17C to 24C (63-75F).
The blustery showers and sunny spells are also all very normal for a British summer.
There may even be an odd interruption to the Test cricket at Headingly on Monday or a delayed start to Tuesday’s play with some overnight rain taking a while to clear away.
On Wednesday though those brisk westerlies switch more to a south-westerly flow which will start to draw some hotter weather in across parts of the UK.
Temperatures will rise to 26C to 29C across the Midlands, eastern and south-eastern England.
The heat and higher humidity will then bring the chance of some heavy and thundery showers across eastern areas overnight. Some heavy, thundery rain will also spread to many parts from the west.
It could also become a little uncomfortable again for sleeping as overnight temperatures won’t go much below 15C to 17C in eastern areas.
