Although the mercury melting heat will ease off, this week will see much of the country bask in sunshine, albeit with showers forecast for parts of the UK. (Image: Steve Reigate)It will be a sunny start for the south of the country although cloud will descend across much of the UK this afternoon. A spokesman for netweather.tv said: "This week temperatures will start in the teens to low 20s, rising into the mid 20s but without a return of the humidity from the end of June. "The North of the UK will be cool with showers or longer spells of rain at times until midweek. "But heat was shunted away from the UK on Sunday as an Atlantic front brings cooler conditions."
