“Mostly fine and dry with bright or sunny spells on Monday and Tuesday. Rather warm and humid.”

Tonight, Friday June 21st, rain is expected around 11pm. A Met Office spokesman added: “It will be a mostly fine and dry day with warm sunny spells. However, it will become increasingly cloudy from the west during the afternoon, with a band of rain reaching the west by evening.

“Generally light winds, more wind later. High 22C.” Pollen counts are set to be “very high” over the next few days, which could mean misery for hay fever sufferers.

Speaking about the risk, the Met Office said: “Grass pollen will increase in hot, dry weather. Nettles, dock and plantain.”
