Weather: Easter Will Be Cold And Sunny

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 28 Maret 2013 | 18.54

The Easter weekend is set to be dry in many areas and there should also be some sunshine following the heavy snowfalls that hit much of the UK recently, forecasters say.

But the cold weather is expected to stay between Good Friday and Easter Monday with temperatures remaining well below the average for late March/early April with sharp frosts during the night.

As the Premier League calendar resumes after the international break and the annual boat race takes place in west London, there will still be a wind chill especially in eastern and also southwestern parts.

Some snow flurries are still possible, with rain in the far southwest on Friday.

However, Sky News weather forecaster Isobel Lang said there would be high pressure moving in and "with the sun gaining strength and warmth at this time of year it should feel much more pleasant despite the below average temperatures."

She said today will be cold again across the UK with some snow showers in Scotland and Ireland, while in England and Wales, temperatures should reach 5C, and may be 7C in the southwest.

Sunshine The Easter weekend should be mostly dry wilth sunshine

Lang added: "Friday will see some changes in the southwest with cloud, patchy rain and a strong east wind setting in. The rain should peter out and clear later but it will remain windy across the southwest and southern Ireland.

"Elsewhere expect a largely dry and bright but cold Friday.

"Between Saturday and Easter Monday the weather should remain cold, frosty and mostly dry with some cheerier sunnier spells. The wind chill will be most noticeable along eastern and southwestern coastal counties."

Also, the clocks go forward by one hour at 1am on Sunday, so there will be longer, lighter evenings.

A cold Easter is not unusual. Back in 2008, there was snow for many, including in eastern England, and it was the coldest since 1983.

However, in 2011 there was plenty of sunshine with a temperature of 27.8C recorded in Surrey and it was the warmest Easter since 1949.

The recent unseasonably cold weather has led to many Britons deciding to head overseas for warmer climates this Easter.

Some 1.7 million UK holidaymakers are expected to go abroad over the weekend, with Spain, Egypt and Tunisia being the most popular destinations.

But some travellers may be swapping the cold UK for somewhere rainy rather than warm.

Lang said: "Areas of low pressure will bring unsettled wet and often rather windy weather to Iberia, France, the central Mediterranean, Italy and across the Adriatic.

"Snow is likely further north across Germany, the Alps, Poland and the Baltic States where it is set to stay very cold throughout.

"The best of the warmth and sunshine? Probably Crete, Cyprus and southern Turkey where temperatures should climb into the low-twenties Celsius, around 70F, and it will become even warmer there after Easter."
