Hello. We've reached 14 Celsius today in northern Scotland. That's

more than double the average for this time of year. We're not done

there with the high temperatures. This week it will be very mild. It

is not necessarily going to be sunny. There will be spells of rain

crossing the country blown in by a fairly strong wind. Particularly

lively on Wednesday. Overnight tonight, much milder than last

night. A few breaks in the cloud may allow temperatures to drift

close to freezing. Againly, we're staying at a few degrees above

freezing thanks to that blanket of cloud. A very different feel

tomorrow. Pretty cloudy across the south-west in the morning.

Outbreaks of rain on the north coast of Devon and Cornwall. A dull

and damp start across much of Wales. It is looking pretty grey over

Northern Ireland. Outbreaks of rain here through the morning. 8 or 9

Celsius. Here it should cheer up through the day. Western parts of

Scotland also looking dull and damp. It was the Murray Firth that saw 14

degrees today. And again tomorrow. With sunshine tomorrow afternoon we

could see similar temperatures. The rain continues no Cumbria. Some

cause for concern. Elsewhere over England most places starting dry.

Predominantly cloudy but we'll get breaks in the cloud. Through the

day, more optimistic of seeing more breaks, particularly of if you're

to the east of higher ground. Some sunshine over north-east England

and north-east Scotland. It will stay grey around many western

coasts. Even where it is dull temperatures of 9-10 Celsius better

than average temperatures. Wednesday could see even higher

temperatures. You probably won't notice because of a strong wind.

Lively, gusty winds particularly over eastern England. The rain

building up. It brings the threat of flooding into Cumbria. Where we

need the rain across the south-east, we probably won't get it until

quite late in the day. Another weather system approaches for

Thursday. Crucially, we're in between those weather fronts on

Thursday. That's where the really mild air is. We could be in the
