England set for dry skies for Denmark clash amid wet start to week

The England football team should face Denmark under dry skies for their Euro 2020 semi-final showdown at Wembley on Wednesday, forecasters predict.

But the combination of showers and warm temperatures that the UK has experienced in recent days will continue over the next week.

The mercury is expected to hit 21C (69.8F) in the day, dropping to around 18C (64.4F) by match time, but the atmosphere will still be on the humid side.

Should England progress to the final on Sunday, also at Wembley, the weather could be drier and warmer.

It will be a similar picture in south-west London, where newcomer Emma Raducanu remains Britain’s last hope in the singles draw at Wimbledon.

The 18-year-old is due to face Australia’s Ajla Tomljanovic on Court One on Monday afternoon.
