UK long range weather forecast
After a patchy frost to start, the rest of Wednesday should be another fine and dry day with plenty of sunshine throughout. Perhaps cloudier towards the north of the UK, with some patchy light rain in the far north. Thursday and Friday are likely to become gradually warmer and remain fine and dry, although with some rain and stronger winds expected in northern parts. Looking further ahead, it is likely that the drier weather will continue, however, there may be spells of wet and windy weather at times. Temperatures are likely to see a large day and night variation, with mild days giving way to chilly nights and a risk of frost in the north.
Updated:
Although confidence is low during this time period, the most probable scenario is that dry weather should dominate, with some interludes of more changeable weather at times. Towards the end of the period, there appears to be some signals that it may be more unsettled towards the north of the UK, with drier weather to the south. Temperatures are likely to vary around the average or even slightly above, with some large variations between day and night.
