Dry for many on Monday with spells of sunshine. A few showers are likely in places, especially the far north. An unsettled period is then likely through the rest of week as areas of low pressure move in from the Atlantic across the UK. These will bring showers or longer spells of rain to most areas, these heavy at times, perhaps accompanied by strong winds along some coasts. Over the following weekend and into the middle of June, dry weather will probably begin to become more dominant in the south, whereas the north is more likely to remain more unsettled. Temperatures are likely to be close to or slightly below normal at first, perhaps rising above normal later.

Changeable weather across the UK with a mixture of Atlantic weather systems moving in from the west interspersed with dry and sunny periods. The wettest conditions are likely to be in the northwest, with the driest weather in the south and southeast. Temperatures are most likely to be near or slightly above normal, perhaps with some hot spells at times, especially across the south.
