Light northerly breezes may be more noticeable in Ulster and north Connacht. TUESDAY ... Increasing cloud, some light rain likely to spread across parts of the north and west, but some uncertainty about how far this will continue to advance before drying out, so that southeast could remain dry and even partly sunny. Lows 8-10 C and highs 18-21 C for most, 21-24 C possible in southeast if rain holds off. WEDNESDAY to FRIDAY ... Hazy sunshine, warm or very warm, light and variable winds with sea breezes in various coastal regions, light winds inland ... lows 6-10 C and highs 21-26 C warmest inland south and west. FURTHER OUTLOOK ... Somewhat greater chance of isolated showers on the weekend of 31 Aug-1 Sep although quite a bit of dry weather too and continuing very warm at 23-27 C, then likely returning to warm and dry in the first week of September under sprawling high pressure. Forecasts for Britain TODAY will feature heavy showers and isolated thunderstorms in eastern England, gradual clearing in the west and north. Cooler with limited sunshine and highs 19-22 C. TONIGHT will see outbreaks of light rain, foggy with lows 8-11 C. SUNDAY will bring variable cloud, some afternoon sunshine, showers in east mainly, and highs near 20 C. Most of next week will be warmer and drier except for some rain in Scotland and parts of northern England on Tuesday. Highs will be similar to Ireland in southern and central England, that is near 21 C at first to 25 C later in the week. It may be a few degrees cooler in parts of Scotland especially the west and north. The first of the autumnal overnight fog under otherwise clear skies could become a major detail, and this warm, dry settled interval could last several weeks except for minor passing showers in a few locations. Some highs of about 28-30 C possible in early September in southern England. Forecasts for North America A stable pattern has developed with little change day to day and widespread warm, dry weather across the eastern, northern, central and western states. Weak frontal systems are confined to southern Canada and it may start out wet today on the west coast then turn dry but cloudy later. My local weather on Friday was overcast although some sun was able to get through broken layers of high or middle cloud at times, but light rain then arrived at sunset. Highs were about 21 C.
