Meto Uk Further Outlook

[damianslaw]

No strong signals for any pattern to dominate - leaves it wide open for anything to happen. May like April is notoriously difficult to predict, so not surprised the Met Office have stated these words.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 30 Apr 2014 to Friday 9 May 2014:

It will be unsettled on Wednesday with showers or longer spells of rain for many. There will be some drier and brighter spells in between. However, colder and more settled conditions are likely to develop across the far north of the UK later on Wednesday, with any showers locally turning wintry over the higher ground of Scotland. The colder and drier conditions in the north will then spread south across Britain through the rest of the week. Daytime temperatures will generally reach around average for the time of year. However, overnight frosts are possible in the north and perhaps locally in the south as well. Into the following week, the confidence is currently low but the most likely trend is for conditions to become more unsettled, particularly in the west.

UK Outlook for Saturday 10 May 2014 to Saturday 24 May 2014:

Conditions are most probable to be fairly typical for the time of year with no strong signal for any particular weather type to dominate throughout the period. There are likely to be periods of fine and dry weather, interspersed with more unsettled spells with some rain or showers. By day temperatures are most likely to be near average, which at this time of year would leave conditions feeling pleasant in sunshine when winds are light.

UK Outlook for Thursday 1 May 2014 to Saturday 10 May 2014:

 

After a rather unsettled start in the south, with showery rain, colder and drier conditions in the north will gradually spread southwards across the UK through the latter part of the week. However, there will be some showers in the northeast which may be wintry especially over hills. Daytime temperatures, near normal at first, will fall back to rather cold or cold, while overnight frosts are increasingly likely as we head to next weekend. Through the weekend, there will be a good deal of fine of weather in the south, but turning more unsettled from the northwest. Into the following week, the confidence is currently low but the most likely trend is for conditions to become more unsettled, particularly towards the northwest.

UK Outlook for Friday 2 May 2014 to Sunday 11 May 2014:

Much colder than recent weeks to start with, with a risk of widespread and locally sharp overnight frosts, particularly on Friday night. Also a risk of a few wintry showers, chiefly to high ground in the northeast. Then a fine, largely dry interlude with winds easing for most places over the weekend, before more unsettled weather arrives into the northwest for the new working week. This is expected to gradually move southeastwards, though its progress remains uncertain, with southern areas staying dry for much of the week. As such, the frost risk should gradually reduce from the north as the week progresses. Thereafter, most likely a more unsettled look, particularly for western and northern areas, with near average temperatures, but a risk of colder interludes affecting the north at times.

UK Outlook for Saturday 3 May 2014 to Monday 12 May 2014:

Most areas fine and dry with sunny spells this weekend, although there is a risk of a few light showers in the east on Saturday whilst some northwestern parts may turn cloudier with patchy rain on Sunday. Cold overnight, with fairly widespread ground frost, but daytime temperatures around average so not feeling too bad in sunshine. The mainly settled conditions look to persist through the early part of next week, temperatures then probably rising a little above average with the risk of overnight frost reducing. Northwestern parts, however, may remain cloudier with a risk of rain at times. Thereafter, most likely a return to slightly more unsettled conditions, particularly for western and northern areas, with near average temperatures and still a risk of colder interludes affecting the north at times.

UK Outlook for Sunday 4 May 2014 to Tuesday 13 May 2014:

Generally fine and dry for many through the bank holiday weekend with sunny spells, especially in the southeast where it will feel pleasantly warm. Northwestern parts, however, will tend to be cloudier and breezier with occasional rain and drizzle. These mainly settled conditions may well persist into the middle of next week, with maximum temperatures then a little above average whilst nights become less cold than at the weekend. Northwestern parts, however, are likely to remain cloudier with some rain at times. This cloudier and more unsettled weather probably spreads eastwards at times later next week. This mixed theme with fine periods interspersed with spells of unsettled weather, particularly for western and northern areas where it may also turn cooler later, probably continues for the rest of the forecast period.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 14 May 2014 to Wednesday 28 May 2014:

In the absence of any strong signals for any particular weather type to dominate during this period, the most likely scenario is for conditions to be fairly typical for the time of year. As such there are likely to be periods of fine and dry weather, interspersed with occasional more unsettled spells with rain or showers. By day temperatures are most likely to be near or just above average, which at this time of year would leave conditions feeling pleasant in sunshine when winds are light.

UK Outlook for Monday 5 May 2014 to Wednesday 14 May 2014:

Dry for many on Monday with sunny spells, especially in the south and east where it will feel pleasantly warm with light winds. Northwestern parts, however, will be cloudier and breezier with occasional drizzly rain. Another cold night will follow, away from the northwest, with a frost where skies clear. Rain in the northwest is likely to spread east on Tuesday, although likely not reaching the east until late in the day. This will herald the change to more unsettled conditions for the rest of the week with showers or more prolonged rain, interspersed with drier and sunnier intervals; the best of which in the southeast. It is likely to remain rather changeable into the following week. Temperatures near average, but locally warm in the sunnier periods in the southeast/east.

Wednesday will be unsettled and rather breezy with outbreaks of rain, especially at first in southern and western areas. Drier and less unsettled conditions gradually spreading from the west later in the day. A temporary period of drier weather is possible overnight before further spells of rain return during Thursday. It is likely to remain largely unsettled into next weekend and through the following week, with showers or longer periods of rain at times. However, there will also be some drier and brighter periods in between; the best of which will be towards southeastern areas. Temperatures probably staying on the whole close to average for the time of year, however some warmer days are likely in the southeast/east, especially towards the middle of May.

Next week is likely to start bright and breezy with a mixture of sunshine and showers, these occasionally heavy with a risk of thunder. With temperatures around or slightly below normal, it will feel cold in the brisk wind. A brief drier period may then develop for a time bringing some fine but not especially warm conditions, with a risk of overnight grass frost in northern areas. Another spell of unsettled weather with showers or longer spells of rain is likely to affect some parts of the UK, western and northwestern parts in particular, during the middle of next week. Signs are that later next week, warmer and more settled conditions may well develop and spread northwards, with southern, central and eastern regions seeing the best of this fine weather.

High pressure is likely to build across central and southern parts of the country bringing a good deal of dry and fine weather with light winds, particularly in the south.

Temperatures will be around average in the northwest, but turning warmer across southeastern parts in the sunshine and light winds. However through the latter part of the weekend and into the following week, there is likely to be a transition to more unsettled and cooler conditions with rain or showers, possibly heavy at times, extending southwards across the country; although the southeast may hold on to the drier and brighter conditions for a time.
