High pressure is lurking away to the SE over Europe and tries to build in for the end of this week. High pressure would bring more settled and drier conditions, needed after all the recent rain and flood events. However, this week looks rather mixed, with hefty showers, a Met Office yellow warning for thunderstorms but some warm sunshine too.

The Jetstream has partly dived away well south invigorating a low pressure near to the Azores which will head over France and in that flow bring warm and humid air to the SE and the threat of thunderstorms.

The SE of England could see temperatures up to 25C if cloud breaks occur and it will feel muggy and close. For many parts temperatures are in the high teens over the next few days, so up on last weeks dip.
