OUTLOOK LOCALLY------SAT.9th to TUES.12th JUNE
A depression in the N. Irish Sea continues to bring unsettled conditions to much of Britain. By the end of the period, this low will have weakened & moved over to Scandinavia, so some improvement can be expected in the weather generally, though no sign yet of any prolonged, settled conditions. The outlook period is expected to see generally cloudy skies, with limited amounts of sunshine, though only small amounts of rain, chiefly in the form of scattered showers. Winds will remain with an easterly component for much of the time, with daytime temperatures near or rather below normal. No frost is expected.
