Settle conditions are expected in southern and eastern areas between Thursday, April 1, and Thursday, April 15. During this period, the regions will experience a good deal of dry and bright weather.

Temperatures are expected to be closer or less than average, with any colder periods likely to be short-lived and mostly in the north.
