Sheffield weather: Clear overnight with sunny spells and thundershowers on Sunday

There will be clear spells overnight but the cloud will increase later with showers arriving just after midnight and a minimum temperature of 11 °C.

On Sunday there will be some sunny spells and showers which will become ‘occasionally heavy’ as the day progresses with the odd clap of thunder possible.

The Met Office says it will be “feeling pleasantly warm in the afternoon sunshine with light winds” and maximum temperature of 21 °C.

The sunny spells will continue through Monday, with showers developing.

Increasing cloud and strengthening winds will bring occasional rain on Tuesday and Wednesday, mainly to western hills.

“There are increasing signs that many parts will become drier, brighter and very warm towards the end of next week with the possibility of hot conditions developing again in southeastern areas,” according to the Met Office website.

"However, northwestern parts will probably stay more unsettled with further rain at times. Somewhat cooler conditions may follow from the west over the weekend, perhaps preceded by showers or thunderstorms.

"For the following week, a fair amount of dry, bright warm weather looks likely for much of the UK with the possibility of some further very warm weather, especially in the southeast.

"There may well be more changeable, breezy interludes with some rain or showers, more especially for northwestern areas where temperatures will be generally nearer normal.”
