North West England weather forecast
Headline:
Windy overnight with showers.

Showers through the evening will continue for many overnight with some heavy downpours at times. Although largely cloudy there will be some clear spells between any showers. Staying windy, especially around coastal areas. Minimum temperature 7 °C.
Monday:
A cloudy and breezy morning for many with scattered showers. Through the afternoon the wind and showers will ease with breaks in the cloud developing to give spells of sunshine. Maximum temperature 17 °C.
Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:
Remaining changeable and rather cloudy for the next few days with bouts of rain giving some heavy and persistent downpours for many areas, particularly over higher ground. Winds mostly light.
Updated:
UK long range weather forecast
Cloudy for many with showers, these heaviest in eastern parts where the winds may be stronger also. Becoming largely dry in western areas with some good spells of sunshine. Looking further ahead, a north/ south split across the UK seems most likely. Northern and northwestern areas are expected to see further spells of rain, accompanied by strong winds, with the possibility of these spreading to some other areas at times. Further south however, there should be more in the way of dry weather, though even here, there is still the possibility of some showers, or longer spells of rain. Temperatures are likely to be either around or on the warmer side of average, with the warmest conditions likely in the southeast.
Updated:
Although confidence remains low throughout this period, the preferred scenario favours a more settled regime. There should be plenty of dry, fine weather around, though there is still the risk of occasional bouts of rain and strong winds. Such spells are mostly likely across the north and west, but they could spread to other areas at times. Temperatures generally around average, with any periods of particularly warm weather most likely being short-lived.
