Greater Manchester's weekend weather forecast

It's definitely not been the balmy May we'd all hoped for.

And sadly, Greater Manchester is set for another mixed bag of weather over the next three days.

Heavy rain is forecast for most of Friday, according to the Met Office.

There will be some occasional breaks from the showers in the afternoon with maximum temperatures of 15C.

The outlook is better for Saturday with drier and calmer conditions across the region.

Though cloudy, scattered showers and sunny spells are forecast for most of the day.

Sunday will see the return of wet conditions with showers, heavier downpours and strong winds predicted throughout the day.

Looking ahead to next week, the Met Office said: "Unsettled weather continues through the start of next week, with widespread showers.

"Persistent rain is also possible at times, particularly in the north and west.

"As next week progresses there is a chance of more settled conditions to gradually become established.

"Rain and showers are likely to become confined to the east, leaving drier and less windy conditions for the rest of the country.

"Temperatures look likely to remain on the cool side, though feeling pleasant in the sunshine."
