UK long range weather forecast
This period begins with fairly widespread sunny spells and showers across the UK, before a north-south split to the weather forming from mid-week. Showers or longer spells of rain are expected to remain in the north and drier conditions are likely in the south, though showers remain possible at times. Through the first half of the period, temperatures are likely to be rather cool at the start, then trending towards mainly normal, and likely above average in the south. Winds probably light in general, perhaps stronger in the southwest at first then becoming breezier across the north later. Most areas will likely become mainly dry into June. Temperatures are expected to be above average across the south and closer to normal further north.
Updated:
Mainly dry conditions are likely for most in early June. Temperatures are expected to be close to or above average across the UK, with the warmer side in the south and perhaps closer to average further north. Into mid-June, the north of the UK may turn less settled, with temperatures trending close to average. Meanwhile, conditions in the south are likely to remain largely fine with above-average temperatures.
