Morning update - Long spells of sunshine and very warm today and tomorrow with the outside chance of a shower

TODAY

A mostly fine and very warm day, although with some cloud building from the middle of the day onward with a small chance of a shower towards the north and east of the island. We also have a rather dramatic temperature change coming for southern and western parts as the winds switch from the north, round to the southwest and brings cooler air in off the sea. Temperature 24-26°C across most parts by late morning but then dropping to 21-22°C in the south and west by midday, although continuing to rise in central and northeastern parts to 27-28°C by early afternoon Wind north 3-6mph becoming southwest 12-23mph, spreading across the island from the west during the afternoon

Rainfall 0-1mm with localised rainfall possible

TONIGHT

Perhaps the odd localised shower at first, but becoming dry and clear everywhere. Temperature 16-17°C Wind west-southwest 10-18mph becoming northeast 11-19mph by the early hours

TOMORROW

Another fine and very warm day across the island with plenty of sunshine and feeling hottest towards central, northern and eastern parts once again. Towards evening there is the outside chance of a shower but most places staying dry. Temperature 21-23°C in the south, west and along the eastern coast, 25-27°C elsewhere Wind northeast 10-19mph becoming north 6-12mph but with onshore coastal breezes also developing
