Unsettled weather is set to give way to sun just in time for the Cup Match holiday, according to the Bermuda Weather Service.

While the Island has seen bouts of heavy rain in recent days — including more than 3.6 inches on Saturday alone — meteorologist Rob Howlett said yesterday afternoon that conditions are expected to improve.

“The simplest way to explain our recent unsettled weather is due to a stalled frontal boundary,” he said. “Subtle variations in the positioning of this feature produced some of the wetter days as the boundary moved closer to Bermuda.

“An area of low pressure is currently developing along this front to our west, which will then move through on Tuesday. This continues to produce showers and potential thunderstorm activity with an increase in winds as well, but then clears to our east overnight. High pressure and fairer weather will then build into the start of Cup Match.”

As of yesterday afternoon, a mix of sun and clouds is expected on Thursday with partially cloudy weather on Friday.
