Let's get the forecast for the next few days and here's Cecilia.

It looks like it will stay cloudy for the rest of the night. A night,

no frost. 12 splashes of rain, but not amounting to very much. No frost

on your windscreens tomorrow morning. This week will be more

settled and less wintry. Imelda week to come with temperatures closer to

the average. Cloud amounts will vary from day today. Tomorrow we have the

remnants of a weak weather front overhead, so it will be cloudy. It

will be damp, but not amounting to very much. The cloudier skies, the

thicker cloud will edge into the Republic of Ireland and in some

areas of central and southern Britain. Sunny skies across Northern

Ireland and Britain will slip south and reach parts of Northern Ireland,

particularly through the afternoon. Increasingly dry and bright tomorrow

afternoon with some sunshine in many places. A cool breeze towards the

north coast but the bridges will be at the average over Belfast, down

and Armagh. This is how we expect Tuesday to happen, drier weather,

thicker cloud rolling off the Atlantic in the west coast of

Ireland and varying amounts of sunshine. On Wednesday the wind is

in the East, but they will be light. High pressure over the top of us.

Dry weather with sunshine and would light winds and average temperatures

it will feel pleasant. On Thursday we see changes the southern areas of

written. Milder air, but some wet weather and very cold air into the

edge of Scotland. We expecting this cold air to continue to come

southwards through Friday and next weekend. So although most of this

week will be dry more springlike, temperatures around average, there

could be some frost at night. By Friday next weekend, to bridges are

likely to fall back into single figures. Have a great evening.
