A changeable start to the period with bands of rain from the Atlantic moving across the country. at times. The wettest and windiest conditions are likely to be across the northwest with some decent drier interludes across the south and east.

Temperatures will be a little below average at the start of the period, likely trending upwards with potential for a mild spell around the turn of the month.
