You might want to check that those links work still, Darren. I clicked the
MetO one and the chart shown was 00Z 31st May...

Here is a summary of the latest NWP output for noon on Thursday.
Issued 0518z, 4 June 06.

It's still looking warm if not hot to end the week in England and
Wales, with Scotland and Northern Ireland also on the warm side,
albeit with a greater chance of seeing cloudier conditions.

ECMWF: http://217.160.75.104/pics/Recm1201.gif
A ridge covers England and Wales with light winds. Elsewhere winds are
westerlies for Scotland and variable over Northern Ireland. High
pressure builds to the east at T+144 with southerlies and SSE'lies as
a result. Southerlies persist at T+168 with pressure remaining high
to the east.

MetO: http://217.160.75.104/pics/Rukm1201.gif
England and Wales lie under easterlies from high pressure to the
east, with southerlies for Northern Ireland and Scotland.

GFS: http://217.160.75.104/pics/Rtavn1201.png
Light winds cover most areas with high pressure centred over the
North Sea. The high drifts eastwards at T+144, introducing easterlies
to England and Wales with SE'lies elsewhere. Southerlies and SE'lies
persist at T+168 as the high continues moving slowly eastwards.

The Japanese run shows light winds for all with high pressure over
the UK. A trough crosses Ireland at T+144, leading to southerlies and
SW'lies for the UK.

NOGAPS: http://217.160.75.104/pics/Rngp1201.gif
NOGAPS shows SW'lies for Northern Ireland and Scotland with low
pressure over Iceland. Elsewhere winds are light due to a ridge.
