Good morning,
Isn't our weather absolutely amazing? After the warmth of last week, we now have the cold. But don't listen to those who say this is proof of global warming; all that this represents if normal springtime weather in the UK!
Of course, that doesn't help if you want to get out and about this weekend, although conditions are generally going to be improving.
We will be here all weekend, you can talk to a forecaster live between 8am and 6pm on 0906 515 0046 (calls cost £1.53 per minute) and get a forecasts specifically for you (both myself and John are manning the lines this weekend).
The Sailing Weather Information Service is becoming ever more popular and you can get your free 14-day trial by registering now at www.sailingweather.co.uk. Remember our forecasts are available by the web, and text message, and they could the UK, Ireland and Europe.
I have also just announced the Sailing Weather School dates for autumn; Part 1 will be held on Saturday 6th October. Full details are at www.weatherschool.co.uk.
If you have a friend who would like to receive this forecast by email each week ask them to subscribe by emailing sailingweather-subscribe@weatherweb.net
Have a great weekend,

WEEKEND WEATHER FORECAST
===========================
Issued 0800 Thursday 5th April 2012
Saturday:
High pressure stays to the west of the UK through Saturday, although a warm front is going to be introducing some moisture into the northwest flow.
This means that skies are going to be mainly cloudy, and any areas exposed to the northwest wind are likely to be seeing outbreaks of rain and drizzle. So, western coasts and hills of Scotland, northwest England, parts of the West Midlands, north Wales and Ireland are going to see the main risk of some rain and low cloud.
More eastern and southern areas will have a fair amount of cloud, but her conditions are probably going to be dry. Again there will be a fair amount of cloud, but this should be broken with some bright spells coming through.
Winds will be mainly NW F2-3 possibly F4 across Ireland and the west of Scotland.
Sunday:
The flow is going to be backing overnight to become more westerly through the country. An occluded front will be passing eastwards.
The airmass is going to be moist and so there will be a fair amount of cloud around, together with some outbreaks of rain. Most of this rain will be around northern and western Scotland, with further outbreaks of rain passing eastwards, close to the occluded front.
More southern counties of England and Wales are likely to be remaining dry.
Winds will be NW F4-F5 but then backing WNW F4-F5 by the evening, although to F7 in northern Scotland later.
