Meto Uk Further Outlook

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Thursday 10 May 2018 to Saturday 19 May 2018:

Thursday will be showery and breezy in the northwest, whilst elsewhere there'll be a good deal of fine weather with sunny spells. By Friday some longer spells of rain may arrive into the west, while the far southeast may see isolated heavy showers. Probably starting warm in the southeast at first, before temperatures return to nearer normal. Thereafter, a northwest / southeast split in the weather seems most likely, although with increasing uncertainty. The north and west are likely to see strong winds and spells of rain at times, interspersed with drier and brighter spells. Drier and more settled weather is likely elsewhere, with a risk of thunderstorms in the south at times. Temperatures may be initially below normal, but will recover to close to average.

UK Outlook for Sunday 20 May 2018 to Sunday 3 Jun 2018:

Confidence in the forecast detail through this period is low, but generally mixed conditions are expected for the rest of May and the start of June. There are likely to be some further dry spells as well as shorter more changeable periods of weather, with rain or showers becoming more widespread. Weather patterns will probably only change slowly, with any spells of wetter and windier Atlantic weather only short lived, and mainly affecting the north and west. Some warm and thundery spells are also possible before the end of May. Temperatures overall will probably be slightly above the average, although there are likely to be marked variations in temperatures, depending on any influence from Atlantic weather systems during the period.

UK Outlook for Friday 11 May 2018 to Sunday 20 May 2018:

Friday should be fine with some sunny spells in the south and east, but with a low risk of isolated heavy and possibly thundery showers developing later. Meanwhile outbreaks of rain will develop in the northwest, and spread erratically eastwards through Friday into Saturday, with brighter and showery weather following from the west. Thereafter a rather changeable weather pattern looks likely, at least at first, with showers or longer spells of rain mainly in the west, but with a chance of some persistent rain in southern areas at times and with a low risk of thunderstorms here too. By the end of this period mixed conditions prevail but with drier and brighter interludes. Temperatures initially below normal, but will recover to close to or a little above average.

UK Outlook for Sunday 13 May 2018 to Tuesday 22 May 2018:

Changeable to end the weekend with a mixture of showers and some longer spells of rain, as well as some drier and brighter weather. Showers will be heavy with a risk of hail and thunder, whilst more organised spells of rain are most likely to be across eastern and northeastern areas. Temperatures will remain on the cool side for many through Sunday, although becoming somewhat warmer into Monday. Through the middle of May there is low confidence in the forecast but there are signs that it may turn drier and more settled at times. Despite this, there remains the possibility of some mixed weather with rain or showers, perhaps most frequent across the northwest and far southeast. Temperatures are likely to become generally above average, with some warm spells possible.

There are likely to be some further dry spells as well as shorter more changeable periods of weather, with rain or showers becoming more widespread.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Thursday 24 May 2018 to Thursday 7 Jun 2018:

Fairly benign weather is the most likely scenario for the end of May and the start of June, though confidence in this situation is low and some mixed weather is likely too. Pressure patterns will probably change only slowly, so long periods of dry weather are likely, interspersed with shorter, more changeable spells of showery rain. Overall, temperatures will probably be above normal, and there is potential for further very warm weather, especially in the south and east, bringing the chance of thunderstorms here. Despite the generally warm trend, there could be large temperature contrasts across the UK and from day to day.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Monday 14 May 2018 to Wednesday 23 May 2018:

The most likely weather across the UK for Monday will be sunshine and showers, though large areas could avoid the showers. Temperatures will be around average, though perhaps a degree or so up on the subdued temperatures over the coming weekend, as winds are expected to be lighter. There is low confidence in the forecast for the rest of next week and the following weekend, but there are some signals that it may turn drier, more settled and somewhat warmer with light winds. However, there remains a chance of some mixed weather with rain or showers, perhaps most frequent across the northwest and far southeast. Temperatures are likely to become generally above average, with some warm spells.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Friday 25 May 2018 to Friday 8 Jun 2018:

Relatively benign conditions could become established towards the end of May with slow moving weather patterns. Some shorter, more changeable periods may bring rain at times; these more likely in western areas. Showery periods are also possible, and possibly thundery; especially in the south and east. Temperatures may be above normal with the potential for further warm spells, however the confidence overall is low.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Tuesday 15 May 2018 to Thursday 24 May 2018:

The outlook is set to begin with rather mixed conditions; often cloudy with some rain or showers but also some bright and sunny spells for some. Winds will be light or moderate, meaning that any showers could be slow moving and heavy in places, but the distribution of these is uncertain at this point. By the end of the week there is low confidence in any detail, but similar mixed conditions are likely to prevail. Temperatures are likely to be around normal, or perhaps warm at times but there may be some contrasts across the UK and perhaps day to day. Towards the end of the period it is possible that relatively benign conditions could become established.

UK Outlook for Saturday 26 May 2018 to Saturday 9 Jun 2018:

During the end of the May, we are likely to continue to see a northwest/southeast split in the weather across the UK. Staying unsettled in the northwest, with occasional rain and showers at times, but also some drier and brighter intervals. Elsewhere, a good deal of dry weather is likely, although some rain is possible at times. As we go into early June, confidence is low, although we are probably going to see generally more unsettled conditions, with periods of rain or showers, these possibly becoming more frequent and widespread. Temperatures probably overall near or slightly above the normal, with the potential for further very warm spells of weather, particularly in late-May.

[Summer Sun]

UK Outlook for Wednesday 16 May 2018 to Friday 25 May 2018:

Rain in the northwest early on Wednesday clearing southeast to leave brighter and showery conditions, mainly in the northwest, where it'll be windy for a time. Otherwise a good deal of dry weather with sunny spells for many, which will persist into Thursday and Friday. Into the weekend and next week, we are likely to see a northwest/southeast split developing. In the northwest probably unsettled, with rain or showers, but also some drier and brighter interludes. Elsewhere, whilst some rain is possible at times, overall a good deal of dry and bright weather around. There is the low risk of some heavy showers and thunderstorms spreading north from the near continent in the southeast later. Temperatures generally near normal, but locally rather warm in the south, probably more widely later.

UK Outlook for Sunday 27 May 2018 to Sunday 10 Jun 2018:

The last few days of May could well stay dry and relatively warm in the south and east of the UK and there is the potential for some very warm spells here. It will probably be less settled and less warm in the north and west, with occasional rain and showers at times, but also some drier and brighter intervals. Signals are less clear for the start of June, although unsettled weather seems a little more likely, with periods of rain or showers possibly becoming more frequent and widespread, and temperatures returning to normal.

UK Outlook for Thursday 17 May 2018 to Saturday 26 May 2018:

Thursday and Friday are expected to stay dry with plenty of warm sunshine. It could be rather cold at night and first thing each morning, perhaps cold enough for a slight rural frost. The dry and warm theme is likely to continue into next weekend for much of England and Wales. The warmest region is likely to be the southeast. In western Scotland and Northern Ireland, and perhaps a little further southeastwards, rain and showers are more likely, though there will be dry and bright spells here too. It may well stay dry and warm in the south and east through the following week, though some rain is possible. There is a greater chance of rain and showers in the north and west.

Friday will start off cool across much of the UK, perhaps cold enough for a slight rural frost in some places. However, it is likely to stay dry all day everywhere and we are expecting plenty of warm sunshine. Saturday looks like being similar, with a chilly start followed by another dry warm day. The dry and warm theme is likely to continue into next week for much of England and Wales and the eastern side of Scotland. The warmest and sunniest regions will continue to be in the east and the southeast. In western Scotland and Northern Ireland, and perhaps parts of Wales, rain and showers will become more likely, though there will be dry spells here as well.

Signals are less clear for the start of June, although unsettled weather seems a little more likely generally, with periods of rain or showers perhaps becoming more frequent and widespread, and temperatures returning to near-normal.

@Ice Man 85 In my seasonal prediction I predict unsettled and colder than normal conditions early and mid-May but later in the month a Scandinavian High set-up lasting for a week is predicted to bring some sunny very warm days, but also some chilly clear nights.

Pretty much mid-May now and we've had a fairly good month so far another dry week on the way and temps on the CET when it last updated 2.7c above average

I've seen your long range forecasts and you definitely know your stuff. Is there any credence to a 10 day heatwave mid-may that some crap rags are already spurting out? The only source I can see is the weather channel and they claim it to be spurious

Not a heatwave but high pressure looks like dominating all this week and possibly into next week today and tomorrow will be very pleasant with temps into the 20s cooler blip mid week before temps on the rise again from Friday

UK Outlook for Tuesday 29 May 2018 to Tuesday 12 Jun 2018:

The end of May could well stay mostly dry and warm in the south and east of the UK and there is the potential for some very warm spells here.

UK Outlook for Saturday 19 May 2018 to Monday 28 May 2018:

Saturday will start off cool across much of the UK, perhaps cold enough for a slight rural frost in some places. However, it is likely to stay dry for most and we are expecting plenty of warm sunshine. Sunday will be very similar, but cloudier in the northwest with an increasing chance of rain later. There will probably be a reasonable amount of dry and sunny weather into the following week. However, the west and northwest will probably be more changeable with occasional rain or showers. The driest and sunniest conditions will therefore probably be in the east and southeast. Temperatures will generally be warm or possibly locally very warm, with a chance of cooler conditions developing from the west or northwest later.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 30 May 2018 to Wednesday 13 Jun 2018:

The end of May, could well remain mostly dry and warm in the south and south east, with the potential for some very warm spells, which may also lead to brief periods of thundery rain. Further north and west, it will perhaps be more changeable, and this could spread more widely across the country as we head into June, bringing more frequent spells of cloud and rain. It is still likely that southern areas could see some settled spells, and overall temperatures are probably going to be near to just above average throughout.

UK Outlook for Sunday 20 May 2018 to Tuesday 29 May 2018:

Fine for many on Sunday with warm sunny spells and light winds. Probably cloudier and cooler in the far north and west with the chance of some patchy rain. Thereafter, there looks to be plenty of dry weather around, but overall it will start to turn more changeable, especially in the west or northwest. This brings a greater risk of showers or longer spells of rain, which could be heavy and thundery at times. As a result, the south and east will often be drier and sunnier, although there still remains the risk of some showery rain. Temperatures will probably be close to or just above average for late May, but there may be some marked daily variations with chilly nights, but also some cooler days under cloud and rain.
