Thursday 02/06/16 High pressure centred to the north-west of the British Isles maintains a rather cool north-easterly breeze. A few showers are possible, mainly toward the south-west, but many places will be dry. Low cloud may persist across eastern districts, perhaps as far inland as the Pennines, but sunshine should increasingly break through. Temperatures struggling near 12C on the east coast, but rising to 17 to 19C in central & western parts.

Friday 03/06/16 A north-easterly pattern continues. Most places should see a dry day, although a chance of areas of rain or drizzle drifting into some north-eastern parts. Low cloud may spill back in from the North Sea, giving a cool and dull day across the east. Best sunshine toward the west. Breezy in the north, lighter winds in the south. Temperatures ranging from 13 to 19C from east to west.

Saturday 04/06/16 High pressure remains to the north, but extend a weak ridge across the country. Dry overall. Chance of an isolated shower inland and over the hills. Fairly light north-easterly winds, although Scotland may stay breezy. Low cloud likely to persist across eastern and perhaps central regions, whilst western parts fare best for sunshine. Highs 12 to 15C east, up to 18 to 21C in sunshine west.

Sunday 05/06/16 A similar pattern, with pressure fairly high across the country. Most likely dry overall. Mainly light winds. Sunshine may break through more widely, and where it does, feeling warmer. Top temperatures 17 to 22C, although the east coast may stay cool where low cloud lingers. Monday 06/06/16 Subtle changes in the pattern may bring more of a south-easterly flow across Britain. Low pressure over the Atlantic begins to edge in slowly, pushing fronts toward Ireland, bringing a risk of showers. Dry and warm for much of Britain. Highs 17 to 23C. Tuesday 07/06/16 Fairly warm as a slack southerly flow covers the country. Thundery rain may break out in the south-west as fronts approach from the Atlantic. Warm sunshine toward the east of Britain. Highs 17 to 24C.
