Further rain, sleet and snow, heavy at times this evening, and strong to gale force northerly winds, severe around coasts. Winds easing and turning showery overnight. Minimum temperature 0 °C.

Updated: 16:00 (UTC+1) on Sat 4 Apr 2026

UK long range weather forecast

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.

Updated: 13:00 (UTC+1) on Sat 4 Apr 2026

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.
