Rain sinking south this evening bringing a cooler feel.
Rain will clear the southeast during the evening, with dry and largely clear conditions moving in behind. Staying windy in the north with scattered showers, hail and mountain snow is possible in Scotland. Chilly especially in rural spots.
Cool and breezy in the north with a mixture of sunny spells and blustery showers. Largely dry in the south with sunny spells and perhaps just the odd shower.
Staying similar over the next few days with sunshine and blustery showers in the north. Drier across southern parts of the UK, with temperatures here slowing increasing towards the weekend.
Updated:
Showers are likely to affect some north and northeastern areas at the start of this period with drier and sunnier conditions elsewhere. A build of pressure will probably bring settled conditions across the country as a whole for a few days after this, with dry conditions prevailing and periods of sunshine. Toward the following weekend, these dry conditions may start to decline with a greater chance that more unsettled weather could develop. Should this happen, the wettest conditions are likely to be in the north and west, with the driest weather in the south and east. There is still a chance that drier conditions could remain in place more widely. Temperatures are likely to be near or slightly below average at first, perhaps slightly above normal later.
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 or slightly above.
