Thursday will be mainly fine with localised increased clouds particularly in the west. Clouds will develop after noon mainly in the mountains, inland and northeast which may lead to isolated showers or storms.

On Friday and Saturday the weather will start off fine, but localised clouds in the afternoon are expected to lead to isolated showers and storms, mainly in the mountains and inland.

Temperatures will fall gradually to a little below average for the time of year.
