Weather Outlook
Quite murky first thing on Monday with some rain or drizzle and hill fog but it will become dry generally during the morning with skies starting to brighten and some sunshine developing heading into the afternoon. The light to moderate breeze will become west or south-westerly with temperatures generally up to 19 Celsius and possibly around 21 for some sheltered spots.
Rain will return on Monday night and Tuesday will bring further rain at times, with light to moderate east or south-easterly winds swinging south or south-west; highest temperature on Tuesday around 18 Celsius.
Weather forecast for Monday looks promising - Schedule released
Organisers are cautiously optimistic that this evening practice and qualifying session will go ahead after the disappointment of having to abandon Saturday's schedule due to inclement weather conditions.
Weather forecasters at the Isle of Man's Ronaldsway Meteorological Office have suggested that
The drizzly rain will die out by late morning, then the low cloud and hill fog will start to lift and thin this afternoon to give brighter spells with the chance of some sunny intervals. Moderate to fresh west or southwesterly winds will decrease this afternoon and temperatures will reach 20 Celsius in sheltered spots.
