LOCAL OUTLOOK----PERIOD THURSDAY MAY 24th to SUNDAY 27th
High pressure over Scandinavia dominates Britain's weather, giving winds from between S. & E.  Apart from the chance of some overnight & early morning low cloud from the North Sea during the first couple of days & the chance of an isolated shower during Thursday, all looks set for some continuing warm weather with spells of sunshine.Saturday & Sunday should see particularly clear skies with maximum sunshine. Highest  temperatures should reach 19 to 21, perhaps feeling a little fresher with stronger breezes over the weekend. Nightimes will be mild. 
Settled conditions are set to continue into next week.
