What you can expect weather to be like in Sheffield this week as city cools off after extreme heatwave
Fresher conditions have been felt in Sheffield since the extreme heatwave came to an end
As Sheffield begins to cool off from an extreme heatwave which saw record-breaking temperatures, here is what you can expect the weather to be like over the next few days.
Days of extreme temperatures last week led to disruption including Sheffield’s tram services being temporarily suspended, restrictions on train travel, schools being forced to close early and the city being subject to an amber weather warning.
Yesterday brought with it cooler conditions, resulting in some much-needed respite from high temperatures and uncomfortable levels of humidity.
And now, according to the Met Office’s forecast for this week, the city can expect weather that is a bit more in keeping with average temperatures for this time of year.
Their forecast for today (Monday, June 29, 2026) predicts variable cloud with some long sunny periods developing during the day.
It is expected to cloud over during the evening, with showers overnight some of which could be heavy or even thundery. Maximum temperature 22°C.
Moving to their outlook for tomorrow through to Thursday (June 30 - July 2, 2026), the Met Office forecast states: “Turning more unsettled on Tuesday with sunshine and showers.
“Wednesday starts off sunny, then clouding over with rain later.
“A wet start on Thursday before cloud clearing and becoming sunny.”
