  • Feeling warm in any sunnier periods with generally light winds.

UK Day 6-7 and week 2

  • As we move into next week, the chance of rain and showers reduces as high pressure builds to the into the UK.
  • This will bring more in the way of dry and fine weather for most areas, although there is still a chance of some showers in places, and a risk also of some more persistent rain rounding the high into north-western parts of the country.
  • The high is likely to maintain influence into the weekend before starting to weaken the following week.
  • So a continuation of fine conditions next weekend seems likely, before a return of less settled conditions by the end of the period.
  • Temperatures are expected to be slightly above normal for early May.

UK Week 3 and 4

  • During the longer range outlook period, there is a greater chance of unsettled weather returning, especially across the south.
  • This means that spells of wet weather are likely for most, notably across southern or central areas, while drier conditions on balance are more likely further north.
  • There are no strong signs for any exceptional temperatures either above or below average, but warm days are possible as are some chilly nights.
