UK Weather: Spring warmth set to return with 26C next week
With northerly winds across the UK, the temperature has been around 4-7C below average this week.
Showers, thunderstorms and hail have also featured widely with some questioning what has happened to spring.
Thunderstorms and hail are actually quite common features of the weather this time of year as the extra daylight and warmth helps grow bigger showers that bring hail.
With the wind switching to more of a westerly direction over the weekend, it will start to feel warmer although the weather will continue to be quite mixed.
After a bright start on Saturday, cloud increases from the west with some rain in Northern Ireland and western areas of England and Wales.
By Sunday, temperatures will have risen to around 12-16C. This will be close to the average for the time of year. With lighter winds it should actually start to feel warmer than it has done this week.
Showers will be mostly confined to northern and western areas of the UK with sunny spells elsewhere.
