"UK Outlook for Wednesday 22 May 2013 to Friday 31 May 2013:
Unsettled for most parts at first with scattered showers or longer spells of rain. Rain may be heavy at times in the east, with a risk of hail and thunder, and perhaps wintry over high ground in the northeast. Best of the brighter, drier spells most likely further west. Rather cool with risk of overnight rural frosts, but nearer normal in any brightness. Thereafter, remaining mostly unsettled in the northwest with further showers or prolonged rain, and hill snow across northern Britain. Drier and brighter conditions in the south and east. Temperatures are likely to remain on the cool side, but there are indications of temperatures improving to near or slightly above normal, particularly across southeast England, by the end of the month.

"UK Outlook for Saturday 1 Jun 2013 to Saturday 15 Jun 2013:
The broadly unsettled conditions at first show signs of slowly giving way to more settled conditions through the first half of June. There will still be some rain and showers at times, with much of the UK likely to see around average rainfall amounts for the time of year, however there will probably be a good deal of dry and bright weather as well, particularly at first in the northwest. Temperatures are most likely to remain on the cool side of average across the UK, although the chance of warm weather increases for a time, particularly in the north and west. Given the time of year, with any prolonged sunshine it will feel pleasantly warm, especially away from the coasts.
