Met Office weather forecast for Liverpool as change is on the way

We will see a mixture of rain, sunshine and wind The Met Office has predicted "changeable" weather for Merseyside, with a mix of rain and sun. Forecasters said there are set to be "sunny intervals" today, Thursday, April 17, with a chance of rain at around 1pm. However, the weather experts said it will feel "pleasant" when there is sunshine with winds lighter than Wednesday.

Temperatures will reach highs of 14C and lows of 7C. As we enter the bank holiday weekend, the Met Office said the weather is set to be "changeable" and is "certainly in contrast to the wall-to-wall sunshine" of last week. On Friday, the Met Office said it looks to be a "drier and brighter day" for many, feeling a little warmer in any sunshine.



There will be some showers around, mainly in the south and west, which could be heavy in places. Parts of Scotland could see outbreaks of rain linger in places for most of the day. Deputy Chief Meteorologist Steven Skeates said: “The Easter weekend is set to bring changeable weather for many.

Some areas may experience near dry conditions all weekend, whilst others may see heavy rain. “We are keeping a close eye on an area of low pressure which sinks away to the south on Friday. This could bring with it some heavy, and possibly even disruptive rain for parts of southwest England, and also parts of Northern Ireland and south Wales.

"This will bring the potential for some difficult travelling conditions, with a lot of spray on the roads, and it’s important people keep an eye on our forecast as things evolve over the coming day or so.” Steven added: “The low will pull away to the south on Saturday, although the speed and time of the clearance is rather uncertain at the moment. Some rain may linger across parts of the west/southwest but elsewhere, many parts will enjoy some sunny spells, with light winds and temperatures around average.

“Easter Sunday looks to be the widely drier day of the weekend. Cloud amounts will vary, but most places should see some bright or sunny spells at times. Parts of the far south and west may remain cloudier with a few showers around.

"Temperatures look generally close to the seasonal average. Things probably turn a little more unsettled again on Monday, with outbreaks of rain/showers in the south and west, tending to spread northwards and perhaps becoming heavy at times, though there is currently a lot of uncertainty in the details.” Get all the big headlines, pictures, analysis, opinion and video on the stories that matter to you by signing up to our daily and breaking newsletter .
