Brierfield (Lancashire) weather

Headline:

Largely dry and bright today. Feeling warmer.

Today:

Any morning mist patches soon clearing, then it will be a bright day with plenty of sunny spells. Perhaps an isolated afternoon light shower is possible. Feeling warmer than of late, with light winds. Maximum temperature 22 °C.

Tonight:

Plenty of sunny spells ahead of dusk, then the cloud thickening from the west overnight. Perhaps a little light rain or drizzle developing over the hills towards dawn. Minimum temperature 13 °C.

Thursday:

Rather cloudy, though some sunshine developing at times, mainly in the south. Mostly dry, but again the cloud thick enough for some light rain over the hills. Feeling warm. Maximum temperature 23 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Mostly cloudy on Friday, some light rain possible in places. An increasing risk of heavy rain on Saturday. Drier and brighter Sunday. Humid at first, but feeling fresher come Sunday.

Early in this period, low pressure is likely to exist to the northwest or north of the UK, allowing areas of cloud and rain to spread across the UK from the west, though some more settled interludes are also likely, especially in the southeast. Breezy at times, with temperatures mainly near or below normal. Remaining changeable thereafter as weather systems to move across the country from the west, with northern and western areas typically wettest and a greater chance of dry conditions prevailing in the southeast. There is, however, a smaller chance for either unsettled weather to be more widely prevalent, or for a more quiescent period to develop across the south, especially later. Overall, temperatures will likely be near normal, but may feel cool in the west at times.

Through this period, there remains a slightly increased chance of more settled spells of weather developing at times, particularly in the south. However, there is still a substantial chance of other weather types too, with more changeable periods also likely. Through the period as a whole, drier than average conditions are more likely than wetter than average. Warmer than average conditions are also weakly favoured overall, with a slightly enhanced likelihood of short-lived hot spells.
