Throughout Good Friday there will be a mix of sunny spells and scattered showers with highs of 14C expected in the southeast of England.

The showers will be widespread which could turn heavy at times with the risk of the odd thunderstorm.

The driest weather is expected in the far northeast of the UK.

After a windy start to the day for many, winds will ease through the day leaving a calmer outlook for the weekend.

Overnight showers will continue in the west and south coasts which will be scattered throughout Saturday and in the west.

Deputy Chief Metereologist, Dan Harris, said, “The weather is expected to gradually improve following the widely unsettled spell of the past few days, with a fairly typical mix of spring-like weather across the UK.

“There will be some sunshine, and it will feel increasingly warm for most as the winds become lighter.

“However, the west and especially southwest is likely to see passing showers too, which could be quite heavy and frequent at times.

“Eastern coastal districts are also likely to feel increasingly cold as an onshore breeze develops, threatening persistent low cloud in some areas too.”
