Planning a day out this week? Then you can take your pick as the forecast currently says it's set to be dry with sunny spells.

Monday will overcast but dry with highs of 21C while Tuesday will see more in the way of sunshine with long periods of sun in the afternoon and early evening.

Wednesday will be dry and warm with more sunshine forecast for Thursday.

However, Met Check says Thursday will see rain in the morning and again on Friday afternoon. 

The weather for the all important bank holiday weekend looks dry but things are set to turn change.

The Met Office says: "Friday and the subsequent bank holiday weekend will stay changeable, with heavy showers or longer spells of rain, particularly in the north and west.

"However, parts of the south and east may stay mainly dry with some sunny spells.

"Temperatures will be around normal in most parts, but probably above average in the southeast, bringing a chance of a few thundery showers.

"It will be windy at times, especially in the north, with a risk of gales here.

"Into the following week, there remains a lot of uncertainty, although we may continue to see spells of wet and windy weather, particularly in the northwest, with drier spells, mainly in the south.

"Temperatures will probably be near normal, though perhaps rather warm at times in the south."
