UK long range weather forecast
This period is likely to be characterised by unsettled weather with sunny spells and showers or longer periods of rain for most areas. The heaviest and most frequent rain is expected in the west and northwest, while southern areas may remain drier on average. Confidence remains low, with the possibility of more settled conditions building across the UK at some point. Breezy conditions are expected throughout, with coastal gales possible, and the strongest winds are likely to be experienced in the north. Temperatures will generally be close to or slight above normal throughout the period. Early in the period, there is the possibility for cooler nights, bringing the chance of mist or fog in places.
Updated:
Confidence remains low for this period. Sunny spells and showers are likely to persist across the UK, however there is the possibility for a deep low pressure system. This would likely bring periods of rain; however, some drier spells and potential mist and fog may be expected too, most likely at the beginning of the period. Temperatures likely to remain above normal throughout.
