Saturday will start largely dry with some sunny spells, however an early brightness will soon be replaced by wet and windy weather. Highest temperatures of 15 to 17 degrees with mostly fresh to strong south to southeast winds.

National Outlook

OUTLOOK: Unsettled owing to a mobile Atlantic regime.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Wet at first with the possibility of further falls of rain later, especially in the south. Lowest temperatures of 11 to 14 degrees in moderate to fresh southerly winds.

SUNDAY: Scattered outbreaks of rain will become more widespread and persistent with some very heavy falls, leading to localised flooding. Blustery too in fresh to strong and gusty southerly winds with highest temperatures of 17 to 19 degrees. Becoming drier overnight, though some showers will feed in later off the Atlantic.

MONDAY: Some sunny spells but with passing blustery showers too, most frequent closer to the Atlantic. Highest temperatures of 16 to 19 degrees in fresh and gusty southwest winds.

TUESDAY: Some uncertainty but current inductions suggest it will be a wet day with heavy spells of rain, later clearing to sunny spells and well scattered showers. Highest temperatures of 14 to 18 degrees, in mostly moderate southerly winds.
