UK long range weather forecast

On Thursday, rain clearing the far northeast, elsewhere sunny spells and blustery showers, heavy at times. These showers may increasingly fall as snow in the far north. Low pressure is expected to dominate for the rest of the week, bringing showers or longer spells of rain, heavy at times. Highest precipitation totals likely in the west, with comparatively drier conditions in the east. Windy at times, with a risk of coastal gales. Throughout the rest of the period unsettled conditions are most likely to continue, with periods of strong wind and rain, interspersed with shorter, drier spells. Temperatures likely close to average in the south but with a chance of becoming rather cold in the north.

Updated:

To start the period, a continuation of unsettled conditions is the most likely. Moving further into April, a chance of more settled weather is most likely, with drier conditions more probable. There is a chance that temperatures may trend cooler than average through this period.
