The Met Office says on its website: ‘Some rain may occasionally spread into parts in the southeast at first but it is likely to turn dry and become generally much more settled, though perhaps rather cloudy, in the south, with lighter winds through to the end of this period.

‘Temperatures are expected to be above average, and warm at times for the south.’

According to the latest forecast it will be cloudy in Portsmouth on Good Friday with highs of 14C and lows of 7C.

But the Met Office is predicting sunny weather on April 16 in the city and temperatures could reach highs of 15C.
