Morning all,
Well, I'm back from holiday and thanks to all of you who sent emails saying how much you'd missed the weekend forecasts.
I thought that with the last bank holiday of the summer looming, you might like to do a bit of planning for the weekend.
Well, at the moment, things are shaping up to be not to bad at all. The GFS model (that';s the American one you see used on the vast majority of internet sites) is building high pressure in from the south during the course of the weekend.
Saturday (see http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/daten/vorher/2005/08/euro/d1227.gif?1124777777) is looking okay in central and southern areas of England and Wales. High pressure is building in nicely, although there may a few showers in western parts of Scotland and Ireland. Also, we need to watch for the risk of some drizzle affecting southern coasts of England. This could bring a mist or fog problem to the Channel, but more on this is Thursdays forecast.Winds SW F3-F4 in S, SW F6 in N.
Sunday (see http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/daten/vorher/2005/08/euro/d1229.gif?1124777842) is breezy in the north in a brisk southwest flow, possible gales in northern Scotland. Drizzle and light rain may rouble Ireland, Scotland and northern parts of England, whilst most of southern England and Wales should be dry and sunny, with high pressure hanging around.
Winds SW F4 in S, F6 local F7 in N.
On Monday (see http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/daten/vorher/2005/08/euro/d1229.gif?1124777842) the high pressure builds further to the south so for England and Wales the day should be fine, although west Wales always at risk from low cloud and drizzle. West Scotland may also have some drizzle, although this would only be light. Otherwise, not to bad a day.
Winds mainly SSW-SW F3-F5.
Hope that's of some use.
Cheers,
Simon
