TODAY'S WEATHER ACROSS UK & EUROPE By Mark Vogan
Your Regional 72-Hour Forecast across Europe!
Wednesday through Saturday
United Kingdom
Trough/low keeps UK cool and unsettled with sunshine and showers, some of which are heavy, thundery and with hail. Highs for Scotland range from 14-16C overall, England 14-16C in north, 18-21C in south.
Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden, Finland)
A large trough over UK to the west of Norway and an upper low north of the Black Sea is forcing a warm, upper ridge up over Norway, Sweden and Finland. The upper troughs both west and east of Scanbdinavia wilkl help pump the ridge in between over the next 48 hours bringing unseasonable warmth.
Oslo which will be on the outer west edge may range from 22C in sun to 19C in the showers Thurs/Fri. Stockholm 24C in sun both Thurs/Fri and Helsinki 20C Thurs and 25C Fri, 24C Sat, all sunny days. Interior, central areas of Norway, Sweden and Finland could see highs reach between 28-30C.
The majority of the European mainland is at risk of showers and storms. Where the cooler air meets the warmer, there may be long-lived heavy rains and strong thunderstorms...
Central Europe (Germany, Poland)
From Thursday through Saturday, there will be very little change in the weather pattern as western Germany sits beneath the boundary between cooler, unsettled weather and eastern Germany sits beneath warmer, more settled weather. Highs reach 1-22C from eastern France and western Germany where heavy rains and T-Storms likely. Further east, temps range from 23-26C across east Germany and Poland over the next 48 hours.
Eastern Europe (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belorussia, Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria)
With the exceptions of southern Spain, S. Italy and S. Greece, the warmest air across the continent will be fed up from the south and over the far eastern European countries. Though T-storms are always possible, especially with daytime heating. Skies should be mostly sunny with highs ranjge from 24 to 30C from Istanbul to Sofia north through Kiev, Riga and up to Tallinn.
Looking ahead at early next week
It appears the trough and upper low remains dominant feature over Great Britain, keeping temps down and skies unsettled with persistent sunshine and showers. Southern areas are always likely to see the longest spells of sun and highs pushing 21C. The trough spreads into central areas of Europe, dropping temps over central, north Germany and Poland and creating cloudier, cooler conditions.
A new trough and cold pool drops into NW Russia by Tuesday, Wednesday at the same time pressure heights build across Spain, France and across the heart of mainland Europe. This weakens the high and warmth across Scandinavia at the same time heat builds across the mainland.
Sunshine and Warmth may return in 7-10 days across UK, including Scotland!
As for LATE NEXT WEEK (Thursday into next weekend), I expect ridging to rebuild back up over the UK, pumping heat from Spain up into our region.. Yes, we may have summer return 7-10 days from now...

51c again in Pakistan:
It was 51c on Wednesday in Larkana, Jacobabad and Sibbi, and 50c in Turbat (all Pakistan)
Highest in India: Bikaner at 47.6c
The exact position of AS-1:
AS-1,as a system is now deepened into a well marked low pressure, as per IMD terms. The cloud bands are getting better organised, and are distinct in the SW and West quadrant. It is to be understood, that the system has very minimal clouding in the east of its centre (read Indian coast). It is now located at 10 pm IST at 18.9N and 70.1E, which is 320 kms S/SW of Mumbai.
Now, this system was barely 55 kms from Mumbai when Vagaries reported 2 days ago. So having moved almost 265 kms AWAY from the Indian Coast, but strengthened to some extent. Read more from our partner blog here!.
