The broadscale picture being currently forecast by medium range computer models is unusually consistent. Usually a range of outcomes is offered when looking more than about five days ahead, but at the moment the main models all show high pressure remaining dominant in most of the UK. The exception is the north west, where more of an Atlantic influence leads to a risk of some rain in the days ahead. (If you would like to browse the website without adverts and access premium features, see below)
