UK long range weather forecast
Friday will see generally average temperatures, and a band of cloud and rain across central and southern parts gradually moving southeastwards throughout the day; drier, sunnier conditions to be expected further northwest. Then, predominantly dry weather is likely for most, but with briefly more unsettled spells of rain or showers for southern and eastern parts, as well as more prolonged rain for the northwest of the UK. Winds are most likely remaining light to moderate throughout, with temperatures hovering at or slightly above average for the time of year. Confidence becomes lower later into the period, but there is a chance of high pressure building for a time. This will most likely bring further periods of settled weather, interspersed with brief more unsettled spells.
Updated:
Confidence remains low for this period, but it is possible that periods of generally settled conditions will continue, these interspersed with some briefly unsettled spells at times. Most of the rainfall from fronts moving into the country will be over northern parts of the UK. Temperatures will probably remain around average for this time of the year, with many areas seeing warm weather.
