 Spring Sunshine For Some Added : Sun 21 March : 10:16 BST
For most of the country today, it will be a dry day with plenty of spring sunshine around to enjoy, and a vast improvement on yesterday across much of England. There is a band of cloud and patchy rain affecting some western areas, but this is pretty weak and certainly won't bring a wash out, whilst the last of yesterday's cloud and rain is now clearing the southeast of England.
This band of cloud is currently lying across eastern parts of Ireland, Northern Ireland and up towards western Scotland, with most of the rain that's currently falling over the west of Scotland. This band of cloud will head slightly further eastwards today, and may bring a few showers to western England and Wales before the day is out. For many though it will be a dry day with sunny spells, and temperatures close to or just above normal for the time of year.
The last of that cloud and any showers will tend to fizzle out tonight and for much of England it will be a dry night with clear spells allowing some mist or fog patches to form. Further to the north and west, clouds will thicken once again as the next band of rain comes in from the west. This band of rain will move eastwards on Monday, but will again tend to weaken as it does so. Brighter skies and showers will follow into the west, whilst the south and east will remain dry, bright and mild for much of the day.
The changeable outlook continues through the coming week, with Atlantic low pressure systems never too far away. Central and eastern areas will be dry and bright again on Tuesday, but the north and west will turn wet and windy. More rain is expected over western areas on Wednesday, with the east again staying mainly dry, but by the end of the week rain or showers will affect all parts. Email to Friend
