Roberttown (West Yorkshire) weather

Headline:

Fine and very warm much of Friday, with rain later.

Today:

Another fine start and soon feeling very warm in the sunshine. Cloudier conditions developing through the afternoon, with perhaps some rain or showers making gradual inroads from the west later, possibly culminating in some thundery showers locally. Maximum temperature 24 °C.

Tonight:

Any rain or thundery showers soon clearing east to give a mostly dry night. Remaining mostly cloudy overnight and mild, with low cloud perhaps shrouding western hills. Minimum temperature 11 °C.

Saturday:

Rather cloudy on Saturday, though a few sunny spells likely developing across the east of the region. Many places dry, but risk of some rain or showers at times. Maximum temperature 19 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

More unsettled than recently, with rain or showers, some thundery. Gradually turning cooler. More sunny spells from Monday, but still also showers, these becoming lighter and further between on Tuesday.

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. Overall temperatures likely close to or a little below average at first, especially in the north, then returning close to average or rather warm later.

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.
