“At the moment, that high pressure is looking to pretty much stay across the southeast all the way until the latter stages of next week when we will start to see low pressure returning more widely across the UK.

“Whilst high pressure is going to be situated to the southeast of the UK, the main area of low pressure will essentially be pushing towards Iceland.
