Weather maps show exact day uk could be hit by heavy rain downpours next week

RAIN HAS BEEN FORECASTED TO HIT MOST PARTS OF THE UK 16:31, 31 May 2025 Weather maps are showing that the UK could be hit by a mass downpour of rain next week, with almost no part of the

country missing the showers. WXCHARTS maps, aided by Metdesk data, have forecasted that a huge downpour of rain could hit England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland on Thursday, 5 June.

The downpour is expected for much of the country around midday, the Express reports. Maps show that almost all of the country will be hit at some point with showers as rain moves eastwards

throughout the day. Lucky areas that could stay dry include the south coast of East Sussex, Kent and Devon. The east coast, stretching from Suffolk to Newcastle could also avoid showers.

that Northern Ireland and the west coast of England and Wales will be first hit with showers on Thursday morning, around 6am. The rain spells are then seen to move eastwards across the

country as the day progresses, with most of the country being hit with the downpour by 6pm on Thursday. The Met Office is forecasting showers for most of the country from Wednesday, June 4,

to Friday, June 13. The following weekend of June 7-8 is expected to bring high pressure with the north seeing "episodes of rain or showers and strong winds". This signals a change

in weather from the largely sunny and dry conditions experienced by most of the UK during May. But, looking towards mid June, the Met Office suggests there is a "chance of a few hot

days". Between June 14 and June 28, the Met Office says: "Changeable weather is most likely across the UK with a mixture of Atlantic weather systems moving in from the west

interspersed with dry and sunny periods, perhaps with a bias towards longer dry spells early in the period. Article continues below "Temperatures are most likely to be near or slightly

above normal, perhaps with some hot spells at times, especially across the south."
