The weather is expected to change from the current warm and settled conditions, with a return to an unsettled and showery pattern as low pressure comes to dominate. Rain and showers, locally heavy and thundery, are expected across much of the United Kingdom. Rainfall amounts could be above average in many areas, most likely where showers merge with each other and become very slow moving. Winds could be fresh at times, especially near heavier showers and also along coasts. Temperatures will not be as high as in the preceding week, and are expected to fall closer to average for May, and feeling rather cold where it remains damp and cloudy. However it will feel much warmer in any sunny spells.

At the start of this period, the weather will probably continue to be fairly unsettled, with rain or showers for many. There will also be some sunny spells between, with slightly-above average temperatures. Around the end of May and into early June there are some tentative signs that conditions could become a little more settled, however this does not rule out further spells of rain or showers moving through at times. As we head from late spring and into early summer, it will naturally feel warm in any sunshine, especially when winds fall light.
