London is set to experience thunderstorms as June begins, according to BBC weather forecasters. After scorching temperatures last week, which saw the mercury peak at 34C in parts of the capital, many residents will be surprised by the booming thunderstorms expected over the city.
Thunderstorm Dates
Tomorrow (Tuesday, June 2) and Thursday, June 4, are forecast to be thundery. The wet weather will not stop there; rain is expected to persist until Saturday, June 6. After that, conditions will improve slightly, with temperatures hovering around the 23C mark and peaking at 26C on Friday, June 12, and Saturday, June 13.
Met Office Outlook
The Met Office’s day-to-day forecast does not extend as far as the BBC’s, but its long-range forecast looks bleak. It reads: “Changeable early in this period with Atlantic frontal systems moving across the UK. These will bring showers or longer spells of rain at times.”
