This period will see unsettled conditions for many with low pressure systems crossing the UK. This will bring organised bands of rain, heavy at times for those in northern and western parts of the country, and in-dispersed with cooler and showery periods, as well as some bright skies at times. Drier and more settled conditions are likely across southern and eastern parts of the country, but there is still a chance that bands of rain and strong winds from the north and west could extend into these areas. The temperatures are most likely to be slightly below average for this time of the year during the start of the period but will gradually return to near average.

Confidence is typically low during this period, but the most likely outcome is for high pressure to form in the south, leading to drier and more settled conditions over these areas. In the north, lower pressure is likely to prevail, with these areas seeing the wettest weather. However, there is a chance of settled conditions becoming more prevalent across most of the UK for a time. Temperatures are more likely to be around or slightly above average.
