Sunny spells most likely in the south. A good deal of dry and settled weather likely for Wednesday and Thursday, especially across the south and southwest. Some showers possible in the north, most frequently in northwest Scotland. A low risk of more organised spells of rain affecting the far north at times.

Temperatures are likely to trend near or above average initially and may become widely warm towards the end of the month, especially across the south.
