This is when the weather is set to improve in Portsmouth, Gosport, Havant, Fareham and Waterlooville

The season has been a particularly wet one for the UK as a whole, the Met Office has said.

By Friday, the country had seen 131 per cent of the usual month’s rainfall already, according to meteorologist Annie Shuttleworth.

However, with an average 91.2mm across the nation so far, the UK is well off hitting the record 131.7mm recorded in May 1967.

But with another bank holiday coming up, will May end with a flourish or continue with grey skies and rainfall?

Here is what the current seven-day forecast is predicting for across the Portsmouth area.
