Stormy for UK & Ireland
Pressure systems protecting Europe

The WeatherRadar shows sunny weather in northern and southern Europe, and stormy skies for us.

Pressure systems have locked weather patterns in place.

While summer conditions are firmly established over northern and Southern Europe, with plenty of sunshine and warmth, one low-pressure system after another is passing over Central Europe.

The general weather situation will remain largely unchanged over the next few days. In Scandinavia and around the Mediterranean, the midsummer weather will continue almost unabated.

Low-pressure systems with showers and thunderstorms will remain over western and Central Europe.
