The outlook for Saturday to Monday in Lancashire, according to the Met Office, is plenty of fine weather during this period. Some showers are possible, though these will be mostly light and scattered. There will be chilly nights with patchy mist in places, but it will feel warm in the sunshine.

Meteorologist Aidan McGivern said: “On the weekend, there will be lots of fine weather.”

The Met Office long-range forecast from Tuesday of next week to June 1 states that the UK will be dominated by high pressure, resulting in mostly settled conditions across the whole country. However, there might be occasional outbreaks of rain and drizzle in some regions.

While winds will generally be light across most areas, they could be stronger at times in the far northwest and southeast.
