Friday will begin with outbreaks of showery rain moving south-east across northern and central areas of the UK.Meanwhile, people in the South and South West can expect warm sunshine. Saturday is also set to start with overcast skies and scattered showers in northern areas, before turning dry across the nation as the extreme heat moves in.
