Wednesday 'will turn overcast and wet as spells of showery rain sweep through from the north-west'.
We had a brief summery spell in a mini heatwave last week, but the dreary British summer is back with umbrellas out in July.
The start of Wimbledon tennis tournament, which sees thousands queue outdoors for hours and even camp in the open air, is set to see a damp day today.
Here is what you need to know.
Wednesday, 3 July, ‘will turn overcast and wet as spells of showery rain sweep through from the north-west,’ BBC Weather forecasts.
‘It will turn increasingly dry through the afternoon and evening, but skies will remain cloudy. Breezy.’
Meanwhile, the Met Office also isn’t too optimistic about the chances of sunshine for those in London and the South East.
Today will have a ‘rather damp and cloudy start clearing to some brighter intervals and isolated showers,’ they said.

It will be ‘driest in the south and east throughout’ with a weakening band of cloud and showery rain expected later.
The maximum temperature will be 19 °C, so it won’t be cold, but also not barbecue weather, and you’ll need to pack a raincoat.
Photos from yesterday’s Wimbledon queue showed people holding up their umbrellas and wearing hoods to avoid the rain.
The first day of Henley Royal Regatta was a similar story, with people dressed in high heels and summer suits perhaps feeling they would have done better with wellies.
It’s not a total wash out summer though, as London was (briefly) hotter than Barcelona last month.
