Saturday: Very close to the centre of the low pressure area. So likely to see light winds but also the risk of some slow moving, heavy and thundery showers. Also some drier, brighter spells after early mist and fog breaks.
Sunday: Some dry and bright spells, especially in the West of the region. Otherwise continuing rather cloudy with further outbreaks of showery rain from time to time. The wind setting into a light east or northeasterly.
