Extensively dry, very warm but very humid indeed England and Wales, although around Monday chance of a thunderstorm. Rain and low cloud at times Scotland, mainly affecting western mountains - although later next week the warmth encroaching into Scotland. There may well be widespread thunderstorms later in the week, before less hot weather extends from the Atlantic around next weekend.
