The models show a less settled outlook than recently with low pressure close

recent warmth, but they'll still be average to above average for most.

Light westerlies cover the UK with low pressure to the NE and NW. A weak
ridge brings NW'lies over England and Wales at T+144 with westerlies
elsewhere and by T+168 the winds become southerlies for all as the ridge
moves eastwards.

The low moves away to the ENE at T+144, leaving behind northerlies for
Scotland and westerlies elsewhere.

as a result.
