Low cloud will spread inland from the North Sea during Friday evening, becoming widespread overnight. Outbreaks of drizzle expected with mist and fog patches developing overnight. Minimum temperature 16 °C.

Saturday:

Rather cloudy start with occasional drizzle or outbreaks of rain. Low cloud will clear back towards North Sea coasts by the afternoon leaving warm, sunny spells. Maximum temperature 23 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Showery rain moves northward on Sunday, turning locally heavy with a chance of thunderstorms. Further showers or rain Monday clearing to bright spells. Becoming cooler and unsettled through Tuesday.

This period is expected to start off on a very cool note, with winds from the north or northwest bringing reasonable amounts of sunshine, particularly to southern areas, but also fairly frequent showers to the north, especially coasts and hills. Showers could be of sleet or snow on some of the highest mountain tops. A gradual recovery in temperatures is expected through the rest of the week as winds become more westerly, the focus of rain then changing to west and northwest areas, whilst southern parts likely see a good deal of fine weather. By the following week, confidence is very low, but more settled conditions than of late are most likely overall, especially in the north, and accompanied by warmer temperatures. Any unsettled spells more likely further south.

The focus for wetter weather overall tis more likely to return to north and especially northwestern areas, whilst southern and eastern areas have a greater chance of being drier relative to earlier in the month. Temperatures are likely to be around average overall, though with greater potential for brief spells of warm weather in the south.
