Changeable Atlantic patterns prevail through the early part of the week

A strong jet stream brings mixed conditions to the British Isles through the first part of this coming week. There are indications in the forecast however of higher pressure building from the west through the later part of the week and into the weekend bringing a spell of more settled, drier weather.
