Sunny spells and scattered showers, heavy and thundery at times.
A mixture of bright or sunny spells and blustery scattered showers for Good Friday. These turning heavy and thundery at times, mainly in the south and west. Feeling pleasant in any prolonged sunshine and lighter winds.
Showers easing, but persisting in the west. Clear skies developing, especially in the north and east. Winds easing and turning chilly with a patchy frost possible, mainly in the north.
Largely dry to start on Saturday with the odd shower. Sunny spells through the day with a few showers breaking out though the afternoon, though less heavy than of late.
Turning drier on Easter Sunday with lighter winds. Becoming unsettled again through Monday and Tuesday with further showers or spells of rain, especially in the south. A touch cooler too.
Updated:
The ongoing unsettled spell of weather seems likely to continue through the first few weeks of April. Initially, the heaviest and most frequent spells of rain and showers are likely to be across southern parts of the UK, with drier brighter and colder conditions dominating further north. However, by the end of next week all parts are likely to have some rain or showers. As this transition takes place in the north, some snow is possible for a time. Overall, temperatures near or above average, although rather cold with night frost at first in the north. Often windy, especially in the south and west. Towards mid-month, the very unsettled weather may begin to ease, with some drier interludes probably developing.
Updated:
Through mid to late April, there is no strong signal for any one particular weather pattern to dominate over another. As such, further rain and showers are likely at times, but there is also a reasonable chance of some drier and sunnier spells of weather. Temperatures most likely near or a little above normal.
