A lot of rain to start the day and some sharp showers. It will be

colder still on Friday. Hello again, the holiday weekend is

not far-away. We are still expecting the weather to change significantly

before then. Some patchy rain from northern Scotland tomorrow. There is

a lot of cloud coming in from the North Sea which is pushing its way

inland. There could be quite a bit of fog around in the morning. It

should be a mild, misty, murky start to Wednesday. The mist and fog

should lift quickly. The cloud thinning and breaking. Sunny spells

developing in many places. That could trigger some or showers. Over

the Pennines we could get some late showers, and tricky for the evening

rush hour. Cooler around the North Sea coast with that low cloud still

around. Inland, warmer in the sunshine. In the south-east of

England it may stay dry. Cooler in the south-west of England. Devon and

will will see some patchy rain moving in from the Atlantic. We have

some sunshine in Wales. Showers likely across the north of the

country. Northern Ireland may stay dry with some sunshine. The rain

holding off until late in the day. Rain will be setting in in Scotland

in the North. Heavy, thundery showers. We may get a bit of cut

snow over the Grampians. It looks like poor day on Thursday. A lot of

cloud around. Showers, longer spells of rain. It is all because we have

this area of low pressure. That is getting pushed away by Friday into

the near continent. Here comes the change. High pressure building from

the north. That will be dragging some noticeably colder air across

the whole of the country by the end of the week. A frosty start for

Friday in Scotland. But a much brighter day. Cloudy in the

south-east. A nagging wind will make it feel cold. That sets us up for

the holiday weekend. It looks pretty good for the most part. We will not

have the mist and fog.
