16/07/2026 - Sunshine developing - Morning Weather Forecast UK– Met Office Weather
Video Overview & Insights
A band of low cloud will make for a cloudy start across parts of central and eastern Britain, with the cloud gradually retreating towards the coast through the morning. Elsewhere, sunshine will become increasingly widespread, although some cloud may linger across northwest Scotland and around North Sea coasts. Temperatures will rise quickly where the sun breaks through, with another very warm start to the day for many, while eastern coastal areas remain a little cooler under any stubborn cloud and onshore breezes. - This is the Met Office UK weather forecast for the morning of 16/07/2026. Bringing you today's forecast is Clare Nasir.
Widely 29-31 deg C across the SW of England today, a bit higher than forecast it seems. Plymouth Mount Batten, Exeter Airport, Chivenor, all around 30 deg C today, with multiple private stations in Cornwall and Devon (see the met office WOW website) recording 29-31 deg C. I recorded just under 31 deg C earlier today, as did the other one in Bodmin. Currently cooled a bit with 27-28 deg C in Plymouth and Exeter around 5pm. Cooled a lot in Bodmin, with a SE breeze, to about 25.1 deg C at 5:30pm, which feels a lot cooler than earlier.

@John-j7b5lThis is so boring now
@danieloconnell6722At least they don't have maps like some that try to make us think we're living on a hot red planet when it's over 25 degrees.
@justinjoyit13Miserable in the north east. Those with blue skies count yourself lucky to have summer.
@stephenbrown9400Last night was so hot and humid here on the coast in Hampshire, even opening the Windows didn't help until the early hours.
@rosemarybleackley208Thought it was raining from the north then realised it was arrows showing wind direction. Rats!

I think it's great that people coming in here tell us about their local weather. We all get a better idea! "The People's Weather Forecast"
Mostly dry then but just a little damp
@DavidFox-n8qThank you to the person who put forward including the temps in Ireland and thanks to the person who approved it.
@Kat-FarrellThank you for that, Clare. Slightly more bearable today and tomorrow then. Not too bad here on the East Coast, Postal area NE16. Strong sunshine , though.😊
@JohnLavenderIt's not too bad in the mornings at the moment, but the afternoon is still pretty unbearable! Thanks for the update.
