The start of this period will see dry and settled conditions across some western and southwestern areas of the UK. Spells of rain are possible over other areas, but they are likely to be most widespread over parts of the north. Eastern and southeastern parts of the country are most likely to see showers at times, as well as a risk of some thunderstorms. Winds are likely to range between light and moderate throughout this period, and temperatures will hover just below the average for this time of year. Confidence becomes lower later into the period, but there a chance of high pressure building over the country for a time.
