Overnight clear spells with some patchy mist or fog possible. However some low cloud will likely spread back inland overnight from the east. Most areas staying dry, with light rain possible in south by dawn. Minimum temperature 7 °C.

Monday:

Cloudy morning, with limited early brightness. Most starts seeing some rain then brighter in afternoon with showers, perhaps turning heavy. Drier in evening with some late sunny spells. Light winds. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Chilly start Tuesday, followed by sunny spells then mostly dry. Rain then afternoon showers likely during Wednesday, before becoming drier and brighter by Thursday. Temperatures near or rather above normal.

Most likely dry and often bright across much of the UK at the start of this period, although more cloud, and some rain are possible across western areas. Little changes through the first weekend, although the chance of a few heavy showers increases across the south. Into the following week, it will most probably be high pressure dominated, with large amounts of fine weather, and perhaps the odd heavy shower, especially in the south. However, there is a small chance of an alternative scenario coming off, with cloudier and wetter weather more extensive, especially across the south and west of the UK. Winds are most likely to be light, with temperatures probably at or slightly above normal.

The period begins with the two alternate scenarios continuing, most likely widely dry and settled, but a lower chance of more unsettled and wet conditions, especially in the south and west. Towards the middle of the month signals become weak and mixed, with more balanced chances of dry / settled and wetter / unsettled conditions. But compared to the start of this period, this represents an increased chance of more unsettled / wet conditions. There is however a strong signal for temperatures to be at or above average.
