Ahead of that, today will be a day of sunny spells and showers. It will feel chilly for most, although temperatures will be up slightly on yesterday.

Tomorrow, milder air moves in, bringing what’s likely to be the warmest day of the week, with highs of 16-17°C possible in the south, and values in the low to mid-teens for many. It will feel cooler in the far north, where it will also be windy.

Wednesday will be a mainly cloudy day, with bands of rain over northern Scotland moving south and eastwards across the day before easing. Temperatures will be down slightly on Tuesday’s values.

Things brighten up on Thursday, with a patchy frost possible in the north first thing. A band of cloud and rain, along with stronger winds, is then likely to move in across parts of the north and west.

An unsettled Easter Weekend

Conditions are likely to turn more unsettled as we head into the Easter Weekend, with low pressure likely to dominate.

Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist, Steven Keates, said: “As we head into Good Friday and Easter Saturday, the weather is expected to turn more unsettled, with spells of rain at times, some of which could be heavy. This will be followed by sunny spells and showers, with the driest conditions likely towards the southeast of the UK.

“It is also likely to become windy at times across all areas, particularly in exposed north-western locations. While there remains some uncertainty in the detail at this point in time, there is a strong signal for wet and windy conditions to continue into the Easter Weekend.”
