Headline:

Storm Dave brings wet and windy weather.

This Evening and Tonight:

Storm Dave will bring strong winds and coastal gales this evening, particularly around exposed coasts of north and northwest Wales. Heavy and blustery spells of rain to start then the storm will clear in the early hours as winds ease. Minimum temperature 3 °C.

Sunday:

Sunny spells and scattered showers on Easter Day with lighter winds. Mostly dry by the afternoon but feeling colder than previous days with a fresh breeze. Maximum temperature 11 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Dry on Monday and Tuesday with good sunny spells and turning increasingly warm. Cloudier on Wednesday and not feeling as warm. Some showers possible.

Rather changeable conditions are expected through this period, as Atlantic frontal systems track eastwards across the UK, accompanied by some strong winds at times. These will bring occasional spells of rain or showers, heaviest and most frequent in the west and northwest, with longer drier interludes likely in the south and sheltered eastern areas. Whilst temperatures will be close to average for the period as a whole, there may be opportunities for some short-lived warm spells in the south and east. Conversely, occasional colder interludes in the northwest will bring the chance of some wintry showers, especially over hills, and overnight frost.

It is probable that more blocked, or at least slowly evolving, weather patterns will become increasingly dominant through late April into May. Whilst confidence is low, this may result in more settled and drier conditions overall, although some more unsettled interludes are still possible at times. Temperatures will probably be close to or above normal for the period as a whole.
