Wednesday
A chilly start. Cloudy too for many eastern areas with the cloud lingering thorugh much of the day across eastern into central regions of Scotland as well as northeast areas of England where the odd spot of light rain is possible. Heavier cloud across southwest England as well as some western, though mainly southwest, regions of Ireland which are likely to see some patchy rain. The rest of the UK and Ireland will stay dry and fine and will feel pleasantly warm in the sunshine. A breezy day particularly southern England, Wales and Ireland, gusty in the west. Lighter winds further north and east. Cool 10C at best near northeast coasts, highs of 14 to 17C elsewhere, warmest in west.

Wednesday night
Mostly dry into the evening and overnight. Cloudy skies for Ireland and Northern Ireland where western areas here will continue to be threatned by some patchy rain. Many seeing winds ease back slightly and clear skies developing allowing for a touch of frost to develop slightly more widely than the previous night, though again mosly affecting the glens and upland spots. A cold start for many with lows 1 to 4C for most.

Thursday
A largely dry and fine day with plenty of sunshine, this best away from eastern areas. An easterly breeze prevails in the south, but less windy than previous days, lighter winds in the north. After a colder beginning the day will warm up nicely for many with highs 15 to 19C, though always colder in that easterly wind and the lingering cloud affecting easternmost coasts.
 

Friday
High pressure persists maintaining settled conditions at the end of the week. Cloud from the North Sea will likely have encroached back into central areas overnight and will take a few hours to retreat eastwards. Far western areas of Ireland will see slightly more cloud bringing the risk of the odd spot of rain. Mostly light to moderate east-southeasterly breezes. Highs 11C on the east coast, to 15 to 18C central areas and warmest again in the west.
