Long Cross Victorian Gardens (Cornwall) weather

Headline:

A changeable start to Easter weekend, turning more settled thereafter.

This Evening and Tonight:

A generally cloudy evening with the odd brighter spells possible, some outbreaks of drizzle possible. Blustery winds easing for a time overnight. Cloud and patchy rain arriving from the southwest by dawn. Minimum temperature 7 °C.

Saturday:

A cloudy start on Saturday, with thicker cloud pushing northeastwards with outbreaks of patchy rain. Turning increasingly windy as Storm Dave arrives with risk of coastal gales developing. Maximum temperature 14 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Bright but blustery on Easter Sunday, with scattered showers. Winds easing leaving a drier, brighter, and warmer Easter Monday. Generally settled on Tuesday, potential for cloud and isolated showers later.

Rather changeable conditions are expected through this period, as Atlantic frontal systems track eastwards across the UK, accompanied by some strong winds at times. These will bring occasional spells of rain or showers, heaviest and most frequent in the west and northwest, with longer drier interludes likely in the south and sheltered eastern areas. Whilst temperatures will be close to average for the period as a whole, there may be opportunities for some short-lived warm spells in the south and east. Conversely, occasional colder interludes in the northwest will bring the chance of some wintry showers, especially to hills, and overnight frost.

It is probable that more blocked, or at least slowly evolving, weather patterns will become increasingly dominant through the middle of the month. Whilst confidence is low, this may result in more settled and drier conditions overall. There may, however, still be some more unsettled interludes at times, especially in the south and southwest. Temperatures will probably be around or a little above normal for the period as a whole, and its possible we may see some pleasantly warm spring weather at times.
