Studley Royal (North Yorkshire) weather

Headline:

A band of rain moves across the area overnight.

This Evening and Tonight:

A band of rain, heavy at times, especially over western hills, will move quickly eastwards across all areas this evening. This clearing during the early hours of Wednesday morning, after which it will become dry with some clear spells. Windy. Minimum temperature 6 °C.

Wednesday:

A rather blustery day, with a mixture of sunny spells and showers. The showers are likely to be heavy at times, especially on western hills. Staying mild. Maximum temperature 11 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

A band of rain, locally heavy, moves erratically southeastwards Thursday, accompanied by squally winds. Colder on Friday, with sunny spells and blustery showers. Drier, brighter and less windy on Saturday.

Mostly changeable through this period, with Atlantic frontal systems passing close to or across the UK at times. These will bring spells of rain and showers, most frequent and heavy in the west or northwest, and perhaps accompanied by strong winds. However, there should also be some drier interludes under transient ridges of high pressure, with longer dry periods most likely in the south and east, though even here some wet weather is possible at times. Temperatures will be near average for the period as a whole, but with some shorter-duration colder interludes at times when frost and hill snow will be possible. Later in the period there may be a transition to more blocked or slower evolving weather patterns, though confidence in the detail of this is low.

Blocked, or slowly evolving, weather patterns are favoured for late March into early April, with high pressure probably building to the north or northeast of the UK. Whilst confidence is low in how this will influence the weather across the UK, this tends to lead to a more prolonged period of a certain weather type, be it settled or unsettled. In any case, a reduction in Atlantic-dominated weather patterns is likely, although some wet weather remains possible at times, perhaps more especially in the south and east whilst northwestern areas tend to be drier than average. Temperatures will probably be close to average for the period as a whole, but there is an increased chance of some colder conditions developing for a time with a risk of frost.
