UK long range weather forecast
For Wednesday, the south of the UK should see clear and sunny spells, whilst elsewhere is likely to be cloudier with the odd spot of rain or drizzle in the north. Over Thursday and Friday, conditions should continue to become more unsettled from the north, with further outbreaks of rain and strengthening winds pushing southwards. Looking further ahead, the unsettled conditions are likely to become more established. This will bring spells of rain, which are likely to be more persistent and heavy across the northwest, followed by spells of sunshine and showers. There could be strong winds at times, particularly towards the north where it is also expected to be colder. The south of the UK could be milder, with the driest conditions mostly likely towards the southeast.
Updated:
It is most likely that this period will see spells of unsettled conditions, bringing wet and windy weather, interspersed with quieter interludes of dry and settled weather. The unsettled periods could see showers turning wintry over the higher ground in the north. The settled periods should see plenty of clear spells and sunshine, with the driest conditions expected in the southeast of the UK. Temperatures should remain around average, although there could be a large variance between day and night temperatures under more settled conditions.
