National Outlook

Overview: More settled conditions generally through the week, with some dry and bright weather forecast, though there will be some rain, showers, and breezy conditions at times.

Thursday night: Cloudy and breezy with persistent rain or drizzle moving into the southwest and west early in the night, and gradually spreading eastwards across the western half of the country. Lowest temperatures of 10 to 13 degrees with fresh to strong and gusty southerly winds.

Friday: There is uncertainty in the forecast from Friday, but it is likely that the cloud and rain will gradually make its way further east during Friday morning. That persistent rain will generally linger over the country with the best of any drier and brighter weather towards the east coast. Highest temperatures of 13 to 15 degrees with moderate to fresh southerly winds at first, easing light and variable as the day goes on.

Friday night: It is looking like a cloudy night on Friday night with rain through the night, again the best of the dry and clear conditions look likely to be in the southeast. Lowest temperatures of 9 to 13 degrees, coldest in the northwest, with light and variable winds.

Saturday: Latest guidance suggests that Saturday morning will be cloudy and wet in the north and west, with that rain gradually moving southeastwards becoming lighter and patchier as it does so. Highest temperatures of 12 to 14 degrees in light variable winds.

Sunday: High pressure will start to build into Sunday, bringing mostly dry and calm conditions for Sunday, with sunny spells developing, although cloudier over the northern half of the country. A cooler day with highest temperatures of 9 to 13 degrees in a light northerly wind.
