Here’s the Easter weekend weather forecast for Scotland according to the Met Office.

Early cloud and showers in some parts of Scotland will clear, but more rain will develop in the northwest, explains the Met Office.

Easter weekend is just around the corner, but will the weather be sunny and warm or bleak and grey?

Maximum temperature of 12C and minimum temperature of 10C.

Easter Saturday (11 April)

The Met Office UK outlook says: “Showery rain in the north should clear quite promptly leaving some sunshine.”

Saturday in Scotland is set to see a mixture of cloud, sunny spells and rain, with a maximum temperature of 15C and minimum temperature of 8C.

Easter Sunday (12 April)

Easter Sunday will be overcast throughout the day in most parts of the country, with light showers in some parts.

There will be a maximum temperature of 11C and overnight temperature of 4C.

Easter Monday (13 April)

Easter Monday will be similar, with cloudy conditions and the chance of light showers in some parts. Maximum temperature of 7C and overnight temperature of 2C.

Long-term forecast

Looking further ahead, the Met Office UK outlook for Monday 20 April to Monday 4 May explains that beyond the Easter weekend, this weather pattern is expected to continue with the dry weather dominating.

Although confidence is low during this time period, the most probable scenario is that dry weather should continue to dominate, with some interludes of more changeable weather at times.

Towards the end of the period, there appears to be some signals that it may be drier towards the northwest UK, with some wetter and windier weather further south.

Temperatures are then likely to vary around average or perhaps slightly above, with some large variations between day and night.
