At the turn of the month, settled weather is expected to cover much of the UK. Most places are expected to be dry with clear or sunny spells and light winds. Inland areas will see a general day on day warming next week, but cooler near coastal areas, with an additional risk of mist or sea fog affecting parts of the east coast. Some periods of unsettled weather could develop at times. If this happens any rain or showers are most likely to affect southern or western areas. However the main signal is for dry and fine weather across the country. Temperatures will likely be around or above normal and feeling warm during the day, and some cold nights are still possible when skies are clear.

Weather patterns are most likely to remain slow moving through the middle of April. High pressure located to the north of the UK will probably be dominant for much of the time, bringing a lot of fine and dry weather. If there are any interludes of rain or showers, particularly later in the month, these are more likely to affect the south of the UK. Temperatures are likely to be above average overall, and feeling warm inland with light winds, especially further north, although some cold nights are still possible under any clear skies.
