The spring weather in London is unusually dry, with temperatures reaching 28c in some areas.
Many welcome the sun, but it has also raised concerns, especially for anyone else who relies on the ongoing rainfall.
The weekend will start to be quite frustrated, but as Saturday morning happens, a cloud will break and the sky will gradually become brighter. The afternoon and evening will be clear and clear.
Sunday mornings will also start with cloudy weather, but dark clouds will break within a few hours in the afternoon.
Any early cloud cover will dissipate on Monday, allowing a lot of sunshine throughout the day.
Tuesday will be as clear and dry as usual. However, there is a risk that clouds will accumulate later in the day.
But why is it so dry in London? When can we rain?
Why is it so dry in London?
According to the Metropolitan Office, high-pressure areas that have dominated since the end of February are the main cause of drought weather.
As the high-pressure system introduces descending air, cloud formation is suppressed and rainfall is prevented. The specific system has developed into what meteorologists call a “block high” pattern that remains immobile and prevents other weather systems from approaching.
Rapidly moving air often helps guide the increase in high altitude movement of the weather system, which adds to this obstacle.
The long dry spell as we see so far may be due to the jet stream becoming wavy or “snaking”, which may capture high pressure.
When does it rain in London?
London will remain dry on weekends and next week.
However, the Metropolitan Office predicts that the transition to more unstable weather will be slow as next week approaches.
From Friday, May 23 to the end of this month, light rain and light breezes will be when London ends on Friday.
A more normal recovery in spring weather may eventually provide some respite for those waiting for rain, but temperatures are expected to remain at 20 degrees Celsius or slightly above 20 degrees Celsius for the season.
