Weather for the week ahead as showers set to continue

The maximum temperature on Monday is expected to be around 11 °C.

It may feel like we have had all four seasons in one lately, and the weather outlook remains a mixed picture for the week ahead.

According to the Met Office, we can expect a few showers on Monday morning, turning mainly dry in the afternoon.

The maximum temperature is expected to be around 11C.

Monday:

A few early showers on Monday, mainly over northern counties. Otherwise mostly dry with sunny spells. Becoming cloudy with some patchy light rain and drizzle in the evening. Maximum temperature 11C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Mainly dry, mild, and cloudy on Tuesday. Early rain on Wednesday, then brighter with the odd shower. Dry, bright Thursday morning, rain arriving from the west later.

Long-range outlook:

Across the UK, a broad northwest to southeast split is most likely next weekend. The northwest is likely to be more unsettled with low-pressure systems moving in at times, bringing periods of strong winds and showers or longer spells of rain.

In the southeast, high pressure will have a greater influence, with more settled, drier weather as a result.

Temperatures overall are likely to be near to or slightly above normal, but there remains the chance of some overnight frost.
