Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Largely dry and settled through this period with light winds. Plenty of sunshine is expected with just a few patches of misty low cloud at times.

During this period, conditions will probably be fairly changeable, with low pressure systems in the vicinity of the UK. This means an increasing chance of showers or longer spells of rain, along with some strong winds at times. However, dry interludes with spells of warm sunshine are still likely, with a risk of a few short‑lived early‑morning fog patches. Temperatures are likely to be close to or slightly above normal, particularly in the southeast.

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, with a risk of strong winds. There will, however, be some dry and warm interludes, although temperatures are likely to be close to normal. Later in the month, more settled and drier conditions may begin to develop, with temperatures perhaps rising slightly above normal.
