Forecast data from Netweather.tv indicates that a Caribbean plume will bring warmer temperatures to the British Isles on October 7, pushing temperatures into the mid to high teens.
The drier weather will come as a pleasant surprise for many Brits who have been left disappointed with the wet and windy conditions over the last few days.
At present, the Met Office has issued yellow and amber warnings of heavy rain and thunderstorms for Thursday and Friday.
According to the forecaster, slow-moving showers and thunderstorms today will soon intensify through the afternoon into the late evening, merging into "a large band of heavy rain" - with central and eastern parts of the warning area bearing the brunt of the storm.
Large areas of central and southern England, including London, surrounding regions, and the south coast, are expected to see temperatures rise to between 18 and 20C, maps suggest.
According to the weather maps, in major northern cities like Liverpool and Manchester, temperatures could reach between 14 and 17C, while Wales may experience highs of 15 to 16C.
Edinburgh and nearby areas will see temperatures in the mid-teens, although some parts of Scotland may only reach up to 9C, maps show.
