This could turn into a record month for rain in
the High Peak! - although we have not had as much as some areas of the UK, we
have had nearly 100mm of rain to mid June - we had just 11mm in the whole of last
June! Sorry to say, the biggest single influence is the Jet Stream - the
curveball Jet Stream currently around the UK, is giving us this wet weather -
our June fine and sunny weather, is stuck out in the mid Atlantic Ocean, blocked
by the Jet Stream - boats sailing across to America are reporting lovely weather
out there!! it trying to get here - where it should be!

----Sunday
23 Jun - Tuesday 2 Jul
On Sunday most places will start fine, bright, and dry and remain so through
much of the day, especially in northern and eastern parts. Temperatures will
recover to normal or be locally warm. However, for southwestern and western
parts heavy rain and some strong winds should arrive during the day as low
pressure moves towards the UK from the southwest. Rain is likely to spread
northward and eastwards into Monday bringing unsettled weather more widely for
the start of the next week. As we head into late June there are signs that high
pressure may become more dominant, bringing a chance of settled and warm weather
with temperatures mostly near normal. However, by early July we may see a return
to greater influence from Atlantic again, although confidence is low.
Tuesday 2 Jul - Tuesday 16 Jul
During the first half of July predictability becomes very low, with mixed
signals. However, at present the favored solution is for increased Atlantic
mobility through this period, bringing spells of unsettled weather to the UK,
generally associated with low pressure systems, interspersed by more settled
anticyclonic regimes. This will likely mean that showers or longer spells of
rain will affect northwestern parts of the UK, whilst the south and southeast
will see more in the way of dry weather: although some thundery outbreaks are
likely in the south and southeast as is usual this time of year. Temperatures
through the period will probably near or slightly above average.---------------------
