OUTBURSTS of rain and blistery winds are set to plague the whole of the UK as dull and overcast weather causes miserable conditions, according to the Met Office.
The majority of the UK will wake up to a wet and damp morning as the rain falls across the country.
While the weather is expected to improve in some areas as the day progresses, rai is set to continue to torment the north of the country.
Alex Deakin, a meteorologist for the Met Office, said: “We may see some bright, even sunny, spells across East Anglia and the Southeast, but only for a time.
“For most it’s a wet Saturday morning.”
The organisation’s website has also warned the day will be “windy with severe gales” possible in the far north.
However, despite the rain and wind temperatures are expected to remain mild with temperatures reaching highs of 12 degrees.
Mr Deakin added: “Temperatures higher than Fridays, relatively mild with double digits in many places.”
However, he added the weather would be “feeling colder, especially where the rain persists and with the strength of the wind.”
The blustery weather is also expected to continue into Sunday with rain continuing to cause misery in the north and east.
Mr Deakin, said; “It is going to be a blustery day on Sunday.
“Those winds are a real feature of the weather throughout the weekend.
“It will be cloudy, it will be mild as well.”
