The mixed theme continues this weekend. Blustery showers affect the north today, while thicker cloud in the south brings some mostly light spells of rain. Tomorrow looks mostly dry, but a lot of cloud is likely to persist. Next week, high pressure will bring more settled and warmer weather, particularly across southern and central areas.
