Early cloud clearing to give a brighter afternoon.

Today:

A cloudy start but this will gradually lift and break to give a generally bright afternoon, although thicker cloud may linger along parts of the east coast. Winds remaining light but easterly, giving a cool feel. Maximum Temperature 12C.

Tonight:

Low cloud along the east coast will once again spread inland through the evening to give a cloudy but fairly mild night for most. Minimum Temperature 7C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Largely cloudy Saturday but dry for most. Sunday brighter and breezier with the risk of a shower. Likely dry Monday with temperatures rising above average.

UK Outlook for Monday 28 Apr 2025 to Wednesday 7 May 2025:

Most likely starting off widely fine with sunny spells, following the clearance of early morning mist and fog. This most likely in the south, whilst in the north there's a greater chance of more cloud which may take some time to clear. There's a small chance that fine and very warm weather could extend right across the country over the following days, but it's more likely that cloud/rain in the northwest will sink southeast introducing more changeable and cooler conditions for a time mid-week. It then becomes roughly equal chances that we see a resumption of mainly fine and dry conditions versus a continuation of more changeable weather with a mixture of rain and drier interludes.
