The retail weather forecast from Saturday August 24 to Friday August 30, 2019

The week last year

Early rain then largely seasonable and dry conditions.

The week this year

It will feel very much like summer as August comes to a close with temperatures averaging well above last year and normal. We can expect afternoon highs to reach into the middle- and even upper-20s across the South and into the lower-20s for the North.

The week will also feature lots of sunshine, with perhaps only a few showers in Ireland and Scotland.

Mindset

It will be a perfect late summer week and ideal timing for consumers looking to enjoy outdoor activities and al fresco dining over the bank holiday weekend. Expect to see strong footfall.
