UK long range weather forecast
Remaining largely settled across most southern and southeastern parts on Wednesday with a good deal of warm sunny spells. Further north, there is an increasing chance of some rain arriving throughout the day, perhaps with strong winds. Looking further ahead, a continuation of the north/south split seems most likely. Northern and northwestern areas are expected to see further spells of rain, accompanied by strong winds, these possibily spreading to some other areas at times. Further south, there should be more in the way of dry weather, though even here, the possibility of some rain or showers still exists. Temperatures are likely to be below average for most northern areas, though hovering near or locally above in the south.
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 or slightly below, with any periods of particularly warm weather being short-lived.
