Here is a summary of the latest NWP output for 12z on Wednesday. Issued
0608z, 4/06/05.

The runs continue to show a largely settled outlook for much of the UK, with
the GFS still showing a risk of ground frost next week as skies clear and
winds fall light. Longer term there are signs of a northerly setting in as
the high moves westwards, but as ever more runs are needed.

ECMWF: http://64.246.48.81/pics/Recm1201.gif
High pressure is centred over the UK, bringing light winds for all areas
except Scotland, which lies under SW'lies. The high shifts westwards at
T+144, with a ridge over England and Wales. Winds are light there, with
NW'lies elsewhere. By T+168 a low deepens east of Shetland, with northerlies
across the UK.

GFS: http://expert.weatheronline.co.uk/pslv_frame.htm
High pressure covers the UK with light winds. 850hPa temperatures vary from
+2C over NW Scotland to +9C over Cornwall. High pressure persists at T+144
and for most at T+168, although by then a low brings SW'lies for Scotland.
Day 8 sees pressure rise to the wets, with northerlies for all (and with
850hPa temperatures of -6C across northern Scotland). The high moves slowly
eastwards at T+216, maintaining the northerlies, followed by NW'lies and
westerlies at T+240 as the high sinks SE'wards over the UK.

largely dry apart from a notable peak of precipitation on the 6th.
