It may be heavy at times, with the west and north experiencing the wettest conditions.

As we enter the bank holiday weekend, the weather is set to be changeable and is certainly in contrast to the wall-to-wall sunshine we experienced last weekend.

Deputy Chief Meteorologist Steven Skeates said: “We are keeping a close eye on an area of low pressure which sinks away to the south on Friday.

“This could bring with it some heavy, and possibly even disruptive rain for parts of southwest England, and also parts of Northern Ireland and south Wales.

“This will bring the potential for some difficult travelling conditions, with a lot of spray on the roads, and it’s important people keep an eye on our forecast as things evolve over the coming day or so.”
