Jubilee weekend weather: Met Office delivers verdict - in your area day-by-day forecast

Brits across the country can expect fine and dry weather for the Queen's Platinum Jubliee but it won't be sunny for everyone.

Millions are getting ready to celebrate this weekend with street parties and BBQs as there are high hopes for lush temperatures.

"Good sunny spells" are in store for the many street parties and outdoor events planned across the country, though people should not expect a scorcher, the Met Office has said.

The weather will be unsettled and cool starting today, but by Thursday much of the cloud should clear.

Wednesday will be drier for many, with the clouds clearing further for the first day of the four-day bank holiday on Thursday.

After a chilly start and showers in Northern Ireland and western Scotland, most of the UK will enjoy fine and dry conditions with sunny spells.

On Friday, it will be a similar picture for most, with some areas basking in "plenty of sunshine", the Met Office said, though rain could fall in central and northern England.

"On Saturday and Sunday it's looking quite settled, with most places seeing quite a bit of fine and dry weather again, with a risk of showers this time in the south east and east coast, maybe," Met Office forecaster Richard Miles said.

The western half of the UK looks set to get the most of the weekend sunshine.

Temperatures will be creeping closer to the average for the time of year, making it feel warmer by the weekend.

In London, where the official Jubilee celebrations are taking place, the mercury is set to hover in the early 20s.
