Brighton weather to cool down after hot start to July 2023

The current forecast for the week after today suggests the temperature is not expected to go above 20C.

A mixed outlook is predicted, with clouds and rain expected before slightly more sunny options begin to return from the middle of the week.

In terms of what the Met Office said to expect at the start of this week, the forecaster stated: "The outlook for early next week is for unsettled, fresh conditions to continue, with widespread showers especially on Tuesday.

"These heavy and thundery at times, potentially slow moving and most intense across northern areas, and organised into longer spells of rain at times across the south."

Thursday will be the driest day of the week for most of us, but which day looks to be the wettest where you are?
