The weather was better Thursday, it was fresh, dry and we even saw with some sunshine. Friday is looking cloudier but mostly dry. Thursday evening was dry with broken cloud. It was dry and cool overnight with the odd light shower on the south and west coast. Temperatures in Powys fell as low as 5°Celsius.

On Friday morning most of north, mid and south Wales will be dry. It’ll be bright in places but cloudier than Thursday. In the west there will be a few spots of light rain, there may be a few breezy showers on Anglesey for example. It’ll generally be cloudier with other patches of rain here and there, otherwise plenty of dry weather with bright intervals and a little sunshine on the north coast. Top temperatures 11-14°C with a fresh south to south-westerly breeze.
Friday night looks to be mostly cloudy, milder with little rain. It’ll be a breezy night; with the strongest winds in the west. It’ll be a different story for the weekend though!
On Saturday a trough of low pressure and a cold front will move eastwards during the day, bringing a spell of wet and windy weather, there will be some heavy rain in places with gusty winds, but it won’t be a write off. Sunday will be the drier day, so I can promise some sunshine over the weekend! The OrioNid meteor shower is visible at the moment too, so the best time to see any shooting stars is just before dawn when the moon has set. Unfortunately, some cloud is likely.

It’ll be cool and wet for the start of the Snowdonia Marathon. However, it should dry and brighten-up during the afternoon with some sunshine. On Sunday there may be a few showers to the north and north west otherwise it’ll be a dry day with some sunny spells. It’ll also be quite breezy and very windy on the Llŷn Peninsula.
The chart for Monday shows a big low close to Ireland. That means bigger waves for surfers but also unsettled weather and stronger winds.
