Grahame Madge, Met Office spokesman, said "most parts of the UK will expect to see fine and settled weather with some approaching heatwave conditions" during that time.
He added: "Because of the energy, heat, and moisture that tropical storms contain, they are significant disruptors of the North Atlantic atmosphere.
"Hurricane Franklin is pushing high pressure our way.
"We are likely to see heatwave conditions in some of the UK.
"By and large, most people will be in for a fine and sunny week possibly edging into next weekend.
"The clarity of the breakdown of these weather events is uncertain because of the impact of tropical cyclones."
It comes after the UK was battered with wet and windy weather for much of the summer months.
And three 30-mile flood alerts were issued by officials on Wednesday.
