Merseyside weather update Friday, 4 March, plus five-day forecast: cloudy changing to sunny

On Friday we will see some sunny spells but then patchy showers are forecast with lots of clouds around, an overcast picture for the region. Temperatures are hitting highs of 8°C.

As we move into the weekend, it's a dry day in St Helens. Elsewhere, it remains overcast with a slight chance of some showers—highs of 7°C across the board.

And looking at the five-day forecast now, it's a cloudy picture for us here in the region, a chance we could see some showers over the weekend, but it's not a total washout.

As we go into next week, though, it looks like the end of that rain. By Tuesday, it's looking sunny and dry, and temperatures climb into double figures with highs of 10°C.
