Steeple (Cumbria) weather

Headline:

Showers becoming less frequent overnight, Drier and brighter Sunday.

This Evening and Tonight:

Showers becoming increasingly isolated this evening, although a few continuing into the early hours. Long clear spells developing, allowing it to turn rather chilly, perhaps cold enough for a local grass frost in prone rural spots across Cumbria. Minimum temperature 3 °C.

Sunday:

A drier day than on Saturday with all areas seeing some sunshine at times. Scattered showers are likely but some places will remain dry. Breezy but feeling a little warmer. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Cloudy at times early next week with the chance of a few showers at first. Brighter by midweek with sunny periods. Windy at times, especially on Tuesday.

The start of this period is likely to be quite unsettled but also widely warm or very warm, perhaps locally hot in parts of the south and east. Some showers and thunderstorms are likely to affect most parts but there will also be some sunshine. Over the weekend and into the start of the following week, most parts will become drier. However, there may be another brief spell of rain with a risk of some thunderstorms, before high pressure more firmly builds in from the west. The rest of the following week looks like being mainly dry with variable cloud and some sunshine and often warm or very warm. The far north may be largely cloudy with a threat of some more rain at times though.

High pressure looks like being largely dominant at first, maintaining plenty of mainly dry and warm weather, but with variable cloud amounts. However, although details are uncertain, late June and early July looks like becoming more changeable, with spells of rain or showers probable at times, some of which could be heavy and thundery. Temperatures are likely to be a little above average overall, with brief hot spells possible.
