Todays offering Valid for Sat 1 April 2006 to Mon 10 April 2006 The new month will start on an unsettled, rather windy note with showers or longer outbreaks of rain, some on the heavy side, especially in western regions. However, brighter interludes are likely with the south rather warm at times. Otherwise, temperatures will be mostly not far from normal. Around the middle of this spell, winds will turn northerly with temperatures near or a little below normal, along with some overnight frost. All areas will have sunny periods and showers, especially northern parts with snow over the mountains. Then, drier weather should edge in from the west.
