LOCAL AREA OUTLOOK----SAT 16th to TUES.19th JUNE
A low pressure centre over the Irish Republic will move NE across N. England & into Scandinavia by Sunday. This will result in a spell of cool & unsettled weather during this period, with often cloudy skies & some spells of rain, often light (with total amounts of rain much less than further south).Winds will be at their strongest on Saturday & from the NE, but later in the period will be lighter & more variable in direction. There will be too much cloud around for any frost, but daytime temperature values will be around 3 to 5 degrees below the seasonal norm. Some sunny intervals to start next week, but no heatwaves!
