Warnings have been issued as the weather across the UK becomes increasingly mild but wet and windy.
Read moreHeavy showers at times, otherwise dry with sunny spells Friday.
A dry start with some sunny spells but soon turning cloudier with heavy showers developing. Turning drier again through the afternoon with sunny spells breaking through. Staying windy throughout. Maximum temperature 13 °C.
A dry start to the evening with clear spells. Soon becoming cloudy with a band of heavy rain spreading northeastwards. A few lingering showers but turning generally drier overnight. Minimum temperature 4 °C.
It will be a dry day for many with sunny spells, however a few showers breaking out in there afternoon. Breezy. Maximum temperature 11 °C.
It stays unsettled with frequent showers, sometimes merging into longer spells of rain. However, theres a chance of some brighter, drier spells breaking through. Staying breezy throughout.
Updated:
The changeable and at times unsettled weather is likely to continue to start this period, with low pressure dominating the UK. This means further showers or longer spells of rain at times. All parts could see some heavy rain, but it is likely that western areas will be wettest. Strong winds are likely at times, with gales possible in the west. Equally there should also be some drier or clearer interludes, these more prevalent further east. There will likely be a transition to a less unsettled pattern later in the period making drier interludes more common. Winds predominantly blowing from a westerly or southwesterly quadrant. Above average temperatures are most likely, with a reduced incidence of overnight frost and fog, compared to normal, especially at first.
Updated:
The gradual transition to a less unsettled pattern is anticipated to continue through the middle part of the month. With time, greater incidences of high pressure look set to affect the UK, bringing more in the way of dry weather, but also increasing the chances of overnight fog and frost. There may however be some periods of rain, showers, and stronger winds, especially in the west. Later in the month any low pressure systems will likely be steered to the northwest of the UK. As such the majority of any wet and windy weather is more likely to affect areas further to the north. Overall, temperatures look to pan out near to a little above average.
