Varying between low and high pressure this week

Models not in total agreement today with some keeping high pressure in through Sunday while others show a breakdown as a front moves across the United Kingdom. Some disagreement too on the pattern next week but leaning to a wet day on Sunday with an unsettled pattern then for the rest of the forecast period and beyond.
