Another dry, bright and warm day on Thursday, with long sunny spells in the morning. Sunshine perhaps becoming hazy in the afternoon. Cool and foggy overnight. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

A foggy start Friday, with sunny spells to follow. Spells of rain and showers over the weekend, these perhaps heavy, but some sunny intervals also possible. Less warm.

Still rather unsettled across much of the UK at first with scope for some heavy showers across parts of the south on Sunday, but overall, the final week or so of March to the start of April looks to be characterised by a slowly evolving, generally changeable weather pattern. This means some drier interludes are likely, perhaps more especially in the south, where overnight fog is also a possibility. Further north and northwest, there is a greater chance of rain or showers, these accompanied by windier conditions at times. There is a small chance that these wetter, windier conditions may become more widespread for a time. Temperatures will probably pan out close to average overall, though chilly nights remain possible where clear skies coincide with light winds.

Confidence is lower than normal, but blocked or slow-moving weather patterns are most probable for the first half of April. This can lead to slow-moving areas of low and high pressure and, depending on their location, this can result in extended periods of either dry conditions (slightly more-likely) or wetter episodes in the form of rain or showers (slightly less-likely). Temperatures will vary, with some large day-to-day swings possible, but overall are likely to be near average.
