The weather is expected to change from the current warm and settled conditions, and return to an unsettled and showery pattern. Rain and showers, perhaps heavy and thundery, are expected across much of the country. Rainfall amounts could be above average in many areas, especially where showers merge and become slow moving. Winds could fresh at times, especially near heavier showers and along coasts. Temperatures will not be as high as the previous week, and are expected to fall closer to average for May. Where it remains damp and cloudy it will feel much cooler than of late. However where there are any breaks in the cloud, and where winds fall light, it will feel warm in any sunny spells.

For the end of May and the start of June, it will probably start off fairly unsettled with rain or showers for many, but also some sunny spells between, and slightly-above average temperatures. Through the period there are some tentative signs that conditions could become a little more settled in the south and east, with rain perhaps more confined to the north and west. As we head into late spring and early summer, it will naturally feel warm in any sunshine, especially when winds fall light.
