Low cloud advancing overnight. Drier Friday, becoming brighter later.

Chilly during the evening and overnight, as showers soon fade under the advance of low cloud and mist from coastal districts. A slight frost is perhaps possible in more sheltered Pennine valleys. Minimum temperature 2 °C.

Friday:

Cloudy, misty and cool, however this should break up somewhat as the day progresses. Generally fewer, lighter showers then preceding days, staying dry for most with late sunny intervals. Maximum temperature 14 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Rather cloudy and cool through this period, with patchy rain perhaps stalling over the area for a time. Probably brighter but more showery into the new week. Slight rural frosts.

Continuing unsettled and rather cool with showers developing on most days. Each day the showers are likely to be locally heavy with the risk of thunder, perhaps parts of the south most prone to these on Monday. It's likely to be breezy at times too, especially around coastal areas in the west. Temperatures look to remain rather below average across the country, although in any sunshine and lighter winds it will feel quite pleasant. Where winds fall light and skies clear it is still possible we could see some overnight frost in sheltered, prone locations. Perhaps beginning to turn rather more settled toward the end of the period, but this very uncertain at this stage.

Confidence is low for this outlook as is typical of late spring and early summer. However perhaps a trend to rather more settled conditions as we move into early June with more in the way of dry weather and sunshine. With this we are likely to see a recovery in temperature too, although at this stage there is no strong signal for any very warm weather.
