UK long range weather forecast
A general continuation initially, of sunshine and showers for many areas but remaining cool, the odd shower could be heavy across the southeast. Thereafter a build of pressure will probably bring settled conditions across the country for a day before, towards the weekend, increased uncertainty develops. The weekend most likely sees a greater chance of more unsettled weather developing with periods of showers or longer spells of rain over the weekend. Should this happen, wettest conditions are likely to be in the southwest, with driest weather in the northeast at first and temperatures nearer average. Into the new week signals muted between favoured regimes for the time of year, though a return to the cool showery north-westerly pattern marginally preferred at this point.
Updated:
Signals are weak regarding prevailing weather patterns during this period. Typical conditions for the UK are most probable, with a mixture of weather types. All areas can expected to see some spells of drier, sunnier weather but there will also be showers or longer spells of rain at times. Temperatures are most likely to be close to normal.
