Dry and bright, then showery later. Wet and windy tomorrow.
Any early rain will quickly clear to the east, leaving mostly dry conditions and sunny spells. A band of showers, occasionally heavy, will move into western areas during the afternoon. Breezy throughout but feeling very mild. Maximum temperature 14 °C.
The band of showers will cross the region through the evening. Further showers will follow during the early hours. A mild and windy night, with coastal gales by dawn. Minimum temperature 7 °C.
Outbreaks of rain and strong winds will affect most areas during the morning. Turning drier in the afternoon, with strong winds confined to the south coast. More rain overnight. Maximum temperature 10 °C.
Outbreaks of rain, heavy at times, on Saturday with coastal gales. Further rain and strong winds on Sunday, after a frosty start. Patchy rain in western areas on Monday.
Updated:
Going into next week, it is likely that unsettled conditions will dominate, with low pressure systems moving in off the Atlantic. The weather will be changeable. Periods of rain or wintry showers, and strong winds are likely, especially in the west, with brief more settled spells in between. Westerly or southwesterly winds during this period will bring milder conditions to most areas, but occasional interludes of cold northerly winds are possible. It will be on this boundary between the colder and milder airmasses where any snowfall to lower levels could possibly occur. Towards the end of this period, we may see high pressure build over the north of the UK, bringing colder conditions and wintry outbreaks.
Updated:
Although confidence at this range is low, current signals suggest that high pressure could be positioned over the north of the UK during this period. This would likely bring wintry outbreaks and colder than average temperatures to northern areas, as well as increasing the likelihood of more widespread cold spells. Any periods of milder, unsettled weather are more likely to be confined to central and southern areas, where greater than average rainfall is predicted. There is a continued risk of significant snowfall events on the boundary between colder and milder airmasses, with snow possible to low elevations.
