The long Easter weekend is nearly here, and in a reverse to tradition, the weather looks to improve for the Bank Holiday Monday as the last of the heavier rain clears through during Good Friday and high pressure takes charge.
The long Easter weekend is nearly here, and in a reverse to tradition, the weather looks to improve for the Bank Holiday Monday as the last of the heavier rain clears through during Good Friday and high pressure takes charge.
The lingering rain that has stalled over parts of the UK today will push back east overnight, becoming heavier, with snow on the Scottish mountains as a weather front pushes in from the north west. This rain will slowly clear south east through Good Friday as high pressure builds from the south west, slowly establishing over the UK as the front clears the far south east of England later in the day.
Once the high pressure is settled over the UK, we should enjoy a mainly dry (apart from showers at times for the far north west), increasingly settled, and fine weekend. Temperatures will be a little cool but if you find yourself in a sheltered spot during a brighter spell it will feel quite spring like, the problem is the cloud will be the dominant feature, with occasional breaks and sunnier spells.
