Planning Outlook

High pressure centred to the east draws very warm air in on southerly breezes through the rest of this week. Dry conditions, sunshine and fair-weather cloud, some patchy coastal cloud at times in west, locally gustier winds too. A more uncertain outlook into the weekend and early next week, a good deal of fine and warm weather possible, but risk of some rain or showery bursts at times.
