Met Office weather: Temperatures to drop across Liverpool and Merseyside with outbreaks of rain

Liverpool and Merseyside are set for a big change in the weather next week, with temperatures set to drop to below 20 °C.

Residents across Merseyside have experienced sweltering conditions over the last few weeks, with temperatures hotter than Lanzarote during the first official heatwave of the year, earlier this month.

The scorching heat and humidity has made getting a decent nights sleep a little tricky, so this swift change in weather will be a welcome surprise for some.

Today (Sunday June 25), temperatures remain fairly high, reaching 25 °C - though, thanks to the heavy rain expected throughout the afternoon, sunbathing is off the cards.

The Met Office predict that next week temperatures will fall to ‘around average’ with ‘outbreaks of rain and drizzle.’
