Met Office forecasters say an area of low pressure responsible of the wet and windy conditions spreading across the UK will clear away on Friday, leaving a mixture of sunny spells and blustery scattered showers through Good Friday.

In any sunshine it will feel warm, with highs of 14°C expected in the southeast of England. However, the showers will be widespread and could turn heavy at times with the risk of the odd thunderstorm.

The driest weather is expected in the far northeast of the UK. After a windy start to the day for many, winds will ease through the day leaving a calmer outlook for the weekend.
