This weekend is the Easter bank holiday and many are hoping for warm and sunny weather ahead of the long weekend.
Although in March the Met Office predicted a heatwave, there isn't much hope of that in the most recent forecast.
However, it is set to be dry and milder largely across the weekend in St Helens with some clouds in place.
Here is the full forecast for Easter weekend.

Outlook for Monday 18 - Monday 25
The Met Office has not released its forecast for Monday, April 18 onwards, but there is a long-range outlook for the UK.
The Met Office says:
This period is likely to begin cloudy in the northwest, with isolated light rain.
Elsewhere fine conditions are expected after early mist and fog clears, with light winds, though low cloud may linger along some coasts where temperatures may also be suppressed. Some showers are possible in the southeast.
For the rest of the period, a northwest-southeast split is likely, with the northwest remaining more changeable with strong winds and rain at times.
The southeast is likely to be dry and generally more settled, though perhaps rather cloudy, with mist and fog likely in the mornings and lighter winds through to the end of this period.
Temperatures are expected to be above average, and warm at times for the south.
