Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:
This period heralds a change to the weather with cooler temperatures, more cloud and a risk of thundery showers on Monday and Tuesday.
Longer periods of rain possible on Tuesday.
• Yellow warning for thunderstorms across the region
Whilst some places will avoid them, thunderstorms are likely to develop increasingly widely as we go through Monday.
Storms will probably already be underway for Northern Ireland and parts of Scotland by early Monday, before also developing across parts of England and Wales by late morning and into the afternoon. Storms should begin to ease from the west later.
Very locally 20-30 mm of rain is possible in an hour, and up to around 50 mm in three to six hours. Hail and frequent lightning are also possible.
