Meto Uk Further Outlook

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Sunday 13 Mar 2016 to Tuesday 22 Mar 2016:

A rather cloudy day with patchy light rain for the northwest on Sunday, whilst brighter and drier conditions for parts of the southwest and possibly at times for the southeast and northeast. High pressure is then expected to dominate well into next week, to bring largely dry and settled weather, with temperatures probably above normal. Feeling rather warm and spring-like when the sun's out, but a risk of rural frost at night, and a possibility that colder conditions could extend from the east with time. Towards the end of the period there is a tendency for more unsettled conditions to gradually develop, with temperatures around normal or perhaps slightly below. Although the winds will be rather breezy at first towards the northwest, they will generally remain light or moderate throughout.

UK Outlook for Monday 14 Mar 2016 to Wednesday 23 Mar 2016:

High pressure is expected to dominate next week, bringing largely dry and settled weather with some sunshine at times for all areas. The far northwest may be the exception at first with perhaps some patchy rain or drizzle lingering, and perhaps some showery rain reaching the far south or southwest on Tuesday. It will feel rather warm and spring-like when the sun's out, however feeling on the cold side in some southeastern and central areas. Remaining on the mild side in the northwest but temperatures around normal or perhaps slightly below elsewhere with a risk of rural frost at night, especially towards the southeast. The winds will generally be light, however there may be a brisk east or northeasterly breeze developing across the south later.

UK Outlook for Tuesday 15 Mar 2016 to Thursday 24 Mar 2016:

 

High pressure is expected to dominate the weather across the British Isles next week and through the following weekend. This will bring largely dry and settled conditions to all areas, with some sunshine at times. It will feel rather warm and spring-like during the afternoons when the sun is out, although it will occasionally feel cold in central and southern areas, especially in southeastern England. Remaining on the mild side in the northwest but temperatures probably around or slightly below normal elsewhere with a risk of frost and fog at night. The wind will be generally light in strength, although there is likely to be a brisk northeasterly breeze at times in the south. As we head towards late March there is a slightly higher risk of unsettled conditions developing.

UK Outlook for Friday 25 Mar 2016 to Friday 8 Apr 2016:

The period covering late March and early April is most likely to be dominated by rather changeable weather, with temperatures probably averaging out at near the seasonal average. There is the possibility of large swings in weather type and temperature through the period, which could perhaps last for a week at a time, although confidence on this currently remains very low.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 16 Mar 2016 to Friday 25 Mar 2016:

High pressure is expected to dominate the weather across the British Isles for much of this period. This will bring largely dry and settled conditions to all areas. Cloud amounts will be rather variable, but there will be some decent periods of sunshine, especially in west and northwestern areas where it will feel warm and rather spring-like. Eastern areas, however, are likely to be cloudier at times and feeling a bit cooler in easterly winds. Overnight temperatures will remain on the cold side, with fairly widespread frosts and patchy fog at times. As we head towards late March there is a slightly higher risk of unsettled conditions developing, mainly in the west and southwest, with rain and strong winds possible.

UK Outlook for Saturday 26 Mar 2016 to Saturday 9 Apr 2016:

The period covering late March and early April is most likely to be dominated by rather changeable weather. A transition to more unsettled conditions is likely through the first week of this period, but this could be a slow and erratic process. Then as we move into April settled conditions could become re-established. Temperatures probably averaging out near normal for the time of year, although with changing weather types, there could be some large swings in temperature through the period, which is quite usual for early spring.

UK Outlook for Thursday 17 Mar 2016 to Saturday 26 Mar 2016:

High pressure is expected to dominate the weather across the British Isles for much of this period. This will bring largely dry and settled conditions to all areas. Cloud amounts will be rather variable, but there will be some periods of sunshine, especially in west and northwestern areas where it will often feel warm and rather spring-like. Eastern and southern areas, however, are likely to be cloudier at times and feeling a bit cooler in easterly winds. Overnight temperatures will remain on the cold side, with a risk of frost and patchy fog at times. As we head towards late March there is a slightly higher risk of unsettled conditions developing, mainly in the west and northwest, with rain and strong winds possible.

UK Outlook for Friday 18 Mar 2016 to Sunday 27 Mar 2016:

High pressure is expected to dominate the weather across the United Kingdom through this weekend and into the first half of next week. This will mean a good deal of dry and settled weather, with some sunshine at times. Temperatures are expected to be about average for the time of year, though feeling pleasantly mild when the sun's out, especially towards the west. However, where prolonged cloud breaks occur at night, then patchy fog and ground frost are likely. As we head into the Easter holiday period, a gradual transition to more unsettled and slightly colder weather looks the more likely trend, at least across northern parts, although confidence is very low at this stage.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Monday 28 Mar 2016 to Monday 11 Apr 2016:

An unsettled end to March looks the most likely scenario at this stage, with temperatures slightly below average. As we head into early April, there is a very high degree of uncertainty, although there is likely to be significant swings in weather type and temperatures through the period, as often the case at this time of year.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Saturday 19 Mar 2016 to Monday 28 Mar 2016:

High pressure is expected to dominate the weather across the United Kingdom through this weekend and into the first half of next week. This will mean a good deal of dry and settled but not always sunny weather. Although there are likely to be prolonged sunny spells for some areas, onshore winds may bring cloud inland from the coast at times with the odd spot of drizzle. Temperatures should be about average for the time of year, though feeling pleasant in the sun. However, in cloud breaks over night, then patchy fog and ground frost are likely. As we head into Easter, a gradual transition to more unsettled and slightly colder weather looks the more likely trend, at least across northern parts, although confidence is low at this stage.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Tuesday 29 Mar 2016 to Tuesday 12 Apr 2016:

An unsettled end to March looks the most likely scenario at this stage, with the north and west seeing the most of any wet and windy weather and best of any dry and settled weather in the south and east. Temperatures may be generally slightly below average. Then as we head into early April, there is a very high degree of uncertainty. There may be significant swings in weather and temperatures through the period, with the possibility of unsettled weather and a prolonged drier more settled spell, as is often the case at this time of year.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Sunday 20 Mar 2016 to Tuesday 29 Mar 2016:

High pressure is expected to dominate the weather across the United Kingdom during Sunday and into the first half of next week. This will mean a good deal of dry and settled weather albeit rather cloudy at times. Although there are likely to be prolonged sunny spells for some areas, onshore winds may bring cloud inland from the coast at times with the odd spot of drizzle. Temperatures should be about average for the time of year, though feeling pleasantly warm in sunnier areas. However, any cloud breaks overnight may allow patchy fog and ground frost to form. As we head into Easter, a gradual transition to more unsettled and slightly colder weather looks the more likely trend, at least across northern parts, although confidence is low at this stage.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 30 Mar 2016 to Wednesday 13 Apr 2016:

An unsettled end to March looks the most likely scenario at this stage, with the north and west seeing the most of any wet and windy weather and best of any dry and settled weather in the south and east. Temperatures may be generally slightly below average. Then as we head into early April, there is a very high degree of uncertainty. There may be significant swings in weather and temperatures through the period, with the possibility of interludes of unsettled weather as well as longer drier settled spells, as is often the case at this time of year.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Monday 21 Mar 2016 to Wednesday 30 Mar 2016:

High pressure is expected to dominate the weather across the United Kingdom bringing a lot of dry weather, however there is a risk of light showers spreading southwards across the UK on Monday. A mixture of cloudier areas and some sunshine is likely, with patchy fog and ground frost possibly forming overnight. As we head into Easter, a gradual transition to more unsettled and slightly colder weather looks the more likely trend, with stronger winds and outbreaks of rain affecting the north and northeast, whilst parts of the south and southwest hold on to the driest weather for longer, although confidence is low at this stage. Temperatures should be about average or perhaps just below for the time of year, feeling rather cool in areas with an onshore brisk breeze.

UK Outlook for Thursday 31 Mar 2016 to Thursday 14 Apr 2016:

A rather unsettled end to March looks the most likely scenario at this stage, with the north seeing the most of any wet and windy weather and best of any dry and settled weather in the south. Temperatures may be generally slightly below average. Then as we head into early April, there is a very high degree of uncertainty. There may be significant swings in weather and temperatures through the period, with the possibility of interludes of unsettled weather as well as longer drier settled spells, as is often the case at this time of year.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Tuesday 22 Mar 2016 to Thursday 31 Mar 2016:

Initially next week it is likely that high pressure will continue to dominate the weather across the United Kingdom. This will bring mainly dry weather with mostly cloudy skies, although there may be a little sunshine in eastern areas. As we head towards the Easter weekend a gradual transition to more unsettled weather looks the most likely trend, with stronger winds and outbreaks of rain affecting the north and northwest, whilst parts of the south hold on to the driest weather for longer, although confidence on this remains low at this stage. The temperature should be close to or perhaps a bit below the average for late March, and there is a risk of overnight frost at times.

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Friday 1 Apr 2016 to Friday 15 Apr 2016:

During the first half of April there is currently a high degree of uncertainty over the forecast. There may be significant swings in the weather through the period, with the possibility of both settled and unsettled spells. However, it may be that for a while early in April we could see a cold, unsettled northerly airflow developing, with rain and showers affecting eastern areas while the west enjoys more settled conditions. Then as we head towards the middle of the month there is a slightly higher risk of an easterly airflow developing, this giving unsettled conditions across southern areas with the north having the best of any settled weather. Temperatures should average out at near or slightly below average, with a risk of overnight frosts, more so in the north.

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Wednesday 23 Mar 2016 to Friday 1 Apr 2016:

As we head towards the Easter weekend a gradual transition from the current mostly quiet and benign spell to more unsettled weather looks the most likely trend. Stronger winds and occasional rain will affect mainly the north and northwest, while parts of the south are more likely to hold on to drier weather for longer, although confidence on this remains low at this stage. The temperature should be close to or perhaps a bit below the average for late March, and there is a risk of overnight frost at times. Finally, as we head towards April there are currently signs that settled conditions may once again start to dominate the weather across the British Isles.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Saturday 2 Apr 2016 to Saturday 16 Apr 2016:

During the first half of April there is currently a high degree of uncertainty over the forecast. There may be significant swings in the weather through the period, with the possibility of both settled and unsettled spells. However, overall it looks likely that an easterly or southeasterly airflow will predominate during this period and this would lead to southern and southwestern areas being most at risk from unsettled conditions while northern parts would be most likely to have the best of any drier, brighter, more settled spells. The temperature during this period is most likely to average out at close to or colder than average for early April, and there is a risk of overnight frosts occurring, more so in the north.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Thursday 24 Mar 2016 to Saturday 2 Apr 2016:

The current spell of benign weather is expected to change by the Easter weekend. Maundy Thursday should become cloudy and breezy, with outbreaks of rain spreading eastwards across the country, though probably not reaching the southeast until late in the day. Brighter weather with sunny spells, and showers mainly in the west are expected to follow for Good Friday. The rest of the Easter period and the following week are likely to be unsettled with showers or longer spells of rain, interspersed by some dry and bright interludes. It is also expected to become windy at times, with the wettest and windiest conditions probably occurring in the south and west. Temperatures are expected to be near average, although some day to day fluctuations are likely.

UK Outlook for Sunday 3 Apr 2016 to Sunday 17 Apr 2016:

During the first part and middle of April there is currently a high degree of uncertainty over the forecast. Although April may well start unsettled, there may be significant swings in the weather through the period, with the possibility of both settled and unsettled spells. However, overall it looks likely that an easterly or southeasterly airflow may increasingly predominate during this period and this would lead to southern and southwestern areas being most at risk from unsettled conditions while northern parts would be most likely to have the best of any drier, brighter, more settled spells. The temperature during this period is most likely to average out at close to or colder than normal for early April, and there is a risk of overnight frosts occurring, especially in the north.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Friday 25 Mar 2016 to Sunday 3 Apr 2016:

The current spell of benign weather is expected to change by the Easter weekend. Overnight rain should have cleared from the north and west by dawn on Good Friday, but may linger into the afternoon in the southeast. A brief drier and brighter interlude is then expected before more rain arrives later on Friday and during Saturday. The rest of the Easter period and the following week are likely to be unsettled with showers or longer spells of rain, interspersed by some dry and bright interludes. It is also expected to become windy with gales at times, with the wettest and windiest conditions probably occurring in the west and northwest. Temperatures are expected to vary around average, best generally in the east, often rather cold in the west and northwest.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Monday 4 Apr 2016 to Monday 18 Apr 2016:

The start of April is expected to continue unsettled and windy at times with showers or longer spells of rain, interspersed by some dry and bright interludes. The wettest and windiest weather probably occurring in the north and west. Overnight frost and fog is possible in the drier interludes. Overall temperatures should be near or somewhat below normal although day to day fluctuations are expected, which could be quite marked as is usual in April. There are indications that this pattern may slowly change during the second and third weeks of April. However, there is a good deal of uncertainty as to what any change will herald, other than it should become somewhat drier.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Saturday 26 Mar 2016 to Monday 4 Apr 2016:

Frontal systems moving in from the Atlantic will maintain unsettled weather across all parts throughout the rest of the Easter holiday period. So all parts can expect spells of persistent rain from time to time, but with some brighter, showery conditions in-between frontal systems. The rain is likely to be heavy at times, and also accompanied by strong winds, especially in exposed western areas where gales or severe gales are expected at times. Occasional snow can be expected across the hills and mountains in the north. For the rest of the period, the unsettled theme is most likely to continue, with further spells of wet and windy weather to come. The rain heaviest and the wind strongest towards the west and northwest. Temperatures near or slightly below average.

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Tuesday 5 Apr 2016 to Tuesday 19 Apr 2016:

Early indications suggest that the progression of frontal systems from the Atlantic may well ease with high pressure having more of an influence again. This would probably mean less unsettled, though still rather changeable weather at times. As often the case in April, large variations in weather type and temperature may occur from day to day. Overall, temperatures are more likely to stay below average than above at this stage.
