LOCAL AREA OUTLOOK---THURSDAY to SUNDAY
Unexpectedly, Thursday may challenge Tuesday as the best day of the week(despite the look of the weather charts!). Low pressure to the west of Ireland, will slowly migrate around Britain for some days to come, keeping things rather showery. So after a respite on Thursday, showers are likely to get going, particularly for the weekend. Each day will see some dry spells with sunny intervals, but from late morning until evening, shower clouds with sharp downpours are on the cards, with perhaps some hail & thunder. Some places will get a deluge, others may largely escape. After a couple of days with SE winds, the track of the low may well pull winds round towards the N. mostly at strengths 2 to 4. Daytime temperatures in the range 17 to 19. So still no prolonged sunny, hot spells in the offing, but at least a temporary, short-lived reminder of summer during most days.
