Just noticed that Darren Bett is sitting on the fence a bit as regards to next week's outlook on tonight's Weather For The Week Ahead. That forecast is now going for a much better week for large part of England and Wales in the SE half of the UK, but has the NW half of the UK (which includes this part of the world here in Scotland) remaining unsettled. Furthermore, I watches one of Gavin P.'s videos this afternoon which shows one of the models (I think that this might be the ECMWF) going for a really unsettled end to next week which is roughly on a par with what we have just now, although next week might start off OK. The other model featured in that video (which would probably be the GFS) goes to things to be fairly mixed, though not as unsettled as what the other models is showing for the end of next week.
The outlook for this coming weekend has improved a bit from other ecent models as well as this band of rain which was due to come in during Saturday is not not expected to do so until the overnight period of Saturday night/Sunday morning. However, there is still a possible risk of showers on Sunday on that forecast, so it still wouldn't be completely dry here if that came off. Furthermore, that forecast then has a rather poor outlook for this part of the world on Monday as the next weather system comes in and brings yet more rain to this part of the world.
Down south though, it is a different story as the SE half of the country could see quite a nice day on Monday as a result of being much closer to an area of high pressure. The BBC are often dubbed as the 'English' Broadcasting Corporation on this side of the Border for various reasons which it would not be appropriate for me to go into on this forum, so it should be no surprise that they have come up with a forecast like that for Monday.
