METO UK Further Outlook

[Stuart]

UK Outlook for Saturday 12 May 2007 to Monday 21 May 2007:

Cool with sunny spells and showers for northern parts to start. Even in the south temperatures will be near normal with a fairly cloudy and showery picture. Later on Saturday further wet and windy weather is expected to spread from the Atlantic across the UK, to be replaced by sunshine and showers during Sunday. The generally unsettled weather is then expected to continue with bands of rain or showers, interspersed with drier, brighter spells. All parts will see some rain although the south will see least with an increasing chance of mainly dry and fine weather here with time. Temperatures will increase later in the week, especially in the south where it will become warm at times. Winds strong at times more especially early in the period across the north.

All parts starting unsettled with a mixture of sunny spells and showers or longer outbreaks of rain. Cool across northern UK at first but closer to normal in the south.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 16 May 2007 to Friday 25 May 2007:

All parts starting unsettled with a mixture of sunny spells and showers. Some longer spells of rain too, especially in the east. Cool across northern UK at first but temperatures closer to normal in the south. Drier more settled conditions, though still with a few showers, should extend eastwards for a time to most places before the unsettled weather returns more widely towards the weekend. From then most parts of the UK will see some rain with the heaviest probably in the Northwest. Probably remaining on the cool side, especially in the north but there are signs that warmer weather may return to some central and southern parts. Winds strong at times, especially in the northwest.

UK Outlook for Friday 18 May 2007 to Sunday 27 May 2007:

The south of the UK will probably start rather warm and humid but cooler weather with rain or showers is expected to spread from the northwest to all parts by the weekend. Unsettled and rather cool conditions will then predominate for most of the week. The rain may be heavy and prolonged at times in the north and northwest, but amounts mostly small in the southeast where there is likely to be more in the way of drier brighter spells with temperatures nearer normal. There are signs that it may become warmer towards the second weekend, though still with some rain at times, especially in the north. It will be windy at times especially in the north at first.

The rain may be heavy and prolonged at times in the north and northwest, but amounts mostly small in the southeast where there is likely to be more in the way of drier brighter spells. There are signs that southern parts may become mostly dry and rather warm or warm by the second weekend, though the north and west will still see some rain at times.

UK Outlook for Saturday 26 May 2007 to Monday 4 Jun 2007:

A combination of Atlantic frontal systems and warm air pushing north over France is expected to lead to a very unsettled, possibly windy, period of weather early in the period. Despite a few bright or sunny spells most places will see rain or showers and some of this could well be heavy and thundery, more especially in the south and east. Following a temporary respite further cloud and rain or showers, interspersed with brighter drier intervals, is likely to spread from the west by mid week continuing the unsettled theme. Temperatures may start off warmer and humid in the SE but quickly fall to become generally near normal and rather cool in places. Temperatures may recover to slightly above normal in S and E late in period.

UK Outlook for Sunday 27 May 2007 to Tuesday 5 Jun 2007:

There will be some dry intervals but much of the forecast period will be dominated by an unsettled period of weather with cloud and rain or showers on most days. Some of the rain is likely to be rather heavy, perhaps more especially over the southern half of the UK. Early in the period conditions may be very unsettled and possibly windy with the chance of gales chiefly for exposed western and northwest parts. This will be combined with near or below normal temperatures in many parts. Later in the week temperatures recover a little with normal values generally, perhaps a little above normal in parts of the east from next weekend. Although still unsettled into the early part of June, some eastern parts may become drier.

The unsettled weather will be combined with near or below normal temperatures in many parts, although a gradual recovery should occur. The following week still looks rather unsettled with occasional showers or rain but perhaps with more prospect of some longer dry and sunny spells at times, and temperatures mostly near or above normal by that time.

Northeastern areas may also be rather chilly on the average, with winds often coming in from the North Sea. The following week still looks rather unsettled with occasional showers or rain but perhaps with more prospect of some longer dry and sunny spells at times, and temperatures mostly near normal to warm by that time.

Generally unsettled, but becoming warmer

After an exceptionally warm April and with above average temperatures for much of May, the Whitsun weekend certainly turned very chilly for many.

The temperature values for June should range from 15 Celsius in Scotland to nearly 19 Celsius in southern England. Although the weather looks set to become warmer, it won't necessarily be a sunny month ahead - read on to find out more.

Monday 28th May 2007 to Sunday 3rd June 2007

“Cold and wet at first - then sunshine and showers”

Cast not a clout 'til May be out - very true for the start of this particular week! Monday began on a very wet, cold and windy note for much of England and on Tuesday, the rain becomes confined to Scotland, with sunny spells and scattered showers elsewhere. Although the temperatures lift by a few degrees, it will still feel colder than average.

There could be a touch of frost on Wednesday morning for some and rain returns to much of Scotland and also for south west Britain.

Thursday and Friday look generally unsettled with showers or longer spells of rain, with daytime temperatures returning to the seasonal norm.

The weekend sees a greater chance of sunny spells in the southeast where it should become warmer too, but not without the risk of occasional showers. Other areas of the UK keep the more unsettled theme with further spells of rain and temperatures staying around the average for early June.

Monday 4th to Sunday 10th June 2007

“Warming up, especially in the west”

The Azores high begins to weakly build, bringing more settled and much warmer conditions to the southwest in particular.

A weak northwesterly flow over much of Britain will continue to feed in showers to northwestern areas, although eastern parts could see more persistent rain at times.

On the whole perhaps a fair amount of rain for some, but also becoming rather warm, especially in the southwest where it's likely to remain driest and sunniest.

Monday 11th to Sunday 24th June 2007

“Temperatures back to the seasonal norm”

The Azores High will strengthen but showers will still feed in from the north Atlantic for many areas. Once again, temperatures will be rather warm in the southwest, but closer to the norm elsewhere.

The best of any sunshine will be for sheltered eastern counties, whereas most of the showers are likely to affect northwest England and the Midlands.

A dry May and a rainy June puts the farmer's pipe in tune… Is there more rain on the way for June? Find out next week!

UK Outlook for Monday 4 Jun 2007 to Wednesday 13 Jun 2007:

Indications for a drier and warmer interval have increased early in the period as high pressure develops over the UK. Initially there may be some showery rain over eastern parts and patchy rain in the northwest but most places can expect a period of dry weather with warm sunshine. The duration of the dry weather is open to doubt as showers and later thundery rain develops over southern parts from about mid week, perhaps leaving the north drier for longer. For the weekend onwards rain or showers, though still with still some sunny intervals, look likely to spread to most parts of the UK resulting in a more unsettled feel to the weather. Temperatures are expected to become warm in places but ease down to normal from the weekend.

UK Outlook for Tuesday 5 Jun 2007 to Thursday 14 Jun 2007:

Scotland and Northern Ireland will see a good deal of dry, warm and sunny weather at first. There will be some showery rain over southeastern parts. Showers and later thundery rain will develop over southern parts from about mid week, perhaps leaving the north drier for longer. For the weekend onwards rain or showers, though still with still some sunny intervals in between, look likely to spread to most parts of the UK resulting in a more unsettled feel to the weather. It will become warm generally, and increasingly humid in the south. Sunnier parts of western Scotland may become very warm, although eastern English coasts with an onshore breeze may have temperatures nearer normal.
