Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Strong winds Tuesday with rain turning to showers. Colder into Wednesday as winds turn northwest with wintry showers to quite low levels. Drier and brighter on Thursday and less windy.,

Still rather changeable at the start of this period, with further frontal systems moving across the UK, bringing some rain and stronger winds at times. Through late March, high pressure is likely to be located to the west or southwest of UK, with a predominantly northwesterly airstream in place. Further weather fronts are likely to round this high, bringing occasional rain to the north and perhaps east of the country, whereas areas further west stand a better chance of being dry. In this setup, it may be rather cool for most, with some overnight frost where skies are clear and winds light. Into early April and high pressure may become rather more dominant, with many areas seeing dry, settled conditions.

High pressure may be in charge during the first few days of this period, the centre of which transferring from somewhere west of the UK to somewhere to the north or northeast of the UK. As such, plenty of dry weather seems most likely, but with changes in wind direction leading to some quite marked differences in cloud amounts and temperature from day to day. Moving further into April, there is an increasing chance that high pressure will become less dominant and thus there is a greater chance of more places seeing some rain and possible stronger winds from time to time. Overall, temperatures panning out somewhere near to average.
