Latest forecast for South West Wales

Last updated 16 minutes ago

Today

Today will be hot and humid under variable to light winds. A few areas of fog could persist in a few spots in the morning, though they should largely lift later on.

Tonight

Temperatures will remain high and winds will be variable or light. This will make for another very warm and muggy night under clear skies. The odd patch of fog may develop locally in the early hours.

Thursday

Any patches of fog early tomorrow morning will quickly lift. It will then continue widely sunny and it will be another humid and hot day, even hotter than the previous.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday

Temperatures will take a small dip on Friday which will continue to see plenty of sunshine but also an added risk of the odd shower. A touch cooler again by Saturday which will see a mix of sunshine, isolated patchy cloud and the outside chance of a shower. Even cooler on Sunday with a greater chance of a few showers in between sunny spells. Widely dry and sunny by evening.
