Hi,

I hope you have all been enjoying the warmer weather that arrived as promised. I wish I could promise some more but it looks like the weather is set to turn a little more unsettled and also with a fresher feel and less Saharan Dust.

Thursday looks a mainly cloudy day but some warm bright spells and the odd shower can’t be ruled out. More general rain spreading from the south-west into the late evening. Highs of 16’C.

Early rain on Friday will soon be out of the way to leave reasonable day with brighter skies and a fresher feel to the weather. Well-scattered showers are possible later but only a low-risk. Highs of 15’C.

The weekend looks a mixed bag with temperatures returning to normal April values.

Saturday sees a mostly cloudy picture across the region. Some light rain or drizzle is likely at times, mainly to the west and this spreading across the region later in the day. Feeling pleasant in any brightness to the east. Highs of 13’C.

It doesn’t seem to improve on Sunday as again we can expect mainly cloudy skies with more general rain around which will become heavier and spread east during the day. Highs of 14’C.

Looking ahead it looks to remain unsettled at times with temperatures about normal for the time of year. To keep up-to-date with your local weather, follow Jon, @ChadWeather, on Twitter.
