National Outlook

HEADLINE: Staying very unsettled into next week with some wet and very windy interludes.

A spell of sometimes heavy rain will affect all areas during Saturday night, accompanied by fresh southeast winds.

Sunday will be mostly cloudy, cooler and windy with further showery outbreaks of rain. Some heavy downpours are possible locally, but winds veering southwest will have eased and rain will clear in the evening.

Monday will begin bright and dry in most places. Another batch of rain and strong winds arriving in the west before midday will quickly spread countrywide with strong to gale force southerly winds. The rain will ease for a time on Monday night and winds will moderate.

More rain will follow on Tuesday again accompanied by strong winds and temperatures falling back below normal. Some sizeable accumulations of rainfall are possible and then very showery and blustery conditions will follow for Wednesday.

Present signs are for a continuation of distinctly unsettled cool and windy weather for the second half of next week.
