Cloudier for the bank holiday weekend with rain on Sunday.
Showers clearing during Friday evening. Overnight, a mixture of clear spells and cloud, some of this lingering over hills and near coasts to make it slightly murky with drizzle in places. Not too chilly, but relatively cool in rural areas. Minimum temperature 6 °C.
Rather cloudy on Saturday, the cloud bringing morning drizzle over the hills before lifting to keep it drier in the afternoon. Temperatures slightly down on recently but still rather warm. Maximum temperature 18 °C.
Wet on Sunday with rain breaking to showers, possibly thundery. Showers easing during Monday and Tuesday with sunnier spells emerging but starting to feel less warm as temperatures slip away.
Updated:
A fairly quiet start to the period looks likely with many areas seeing a good deal of dry weather. That said we are unlikely to see a return of the completely dry and warm weather we have see in recent days, with clear or sunny periods and showers more likely. Toward the latter part of the period a trend toward more changeable weather is favoured although there should still be some drier intervals. After a cold start to the period, especially in the north, temperatures likely returning close to average later.
Updated:
Low pressure systems are likely to dominate across the UK at the start of this period. This means showers or longer spells of rain are likely at times, heavy in places. There will, however, be some dry and warm interludes, although temperatures are likely to be close to normal overall. Later in the month, more settled and drier conditions may begin to develop, with temperatures perhaps rising slightly above normal.
