The best day of the weekend looks like Saturday, insists Oldham weather expert Jon Baylis.
There are signs of something more unsettled early next week then hopefully after that summer-like conditions return.
Here's Jon's latest in-depth forecast:
Today (Thursday): Mostly cloudy to start, with a few showers in the south and west.
These will move away quickly and then it will be a day of bright spells and a few scattered showers with more in the way of sunshine later in the day.
Quite a keen northwesterly breeze.
Max 20°C Min 12°C Max Gusts 25mph.
Friday: Bright or sunny spells and the odd shower.
A north to northwesterly airflow so not as muggy.
Max 19°C Min 12°C Max Gusts 25mph.
Weekend: Sunnier on Saturday.
Saturday: Mostly dry with plenty of sunny spells developing.
Again, a fresh breeze and still the low chance of an isolated shower early on.
Max 20°C Min 13°C Max Gusts 20mph.
Sunday: Any bright spells soon fading as cloud thickens from the northwest bringing a spell of rain, some heavy which will turn patchy after midday.
Feeling more humid once again.
Max 20°C Min 13°C Max Gusts 15mph.
