Largely cloudy through the morning with showery outbreaks easing. Brighter by the afternoon with increasingly frequent sunny spells and the odd chance of a shower in the east. Rather breezy. Maximum temperature 20 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Warm on Wednesday with sunny spells. A touch cloudier on Thursday with perhaps the odd shower, though still some brightness. Turning breezier on Friday but largely fine; rain possible later.

Early in this period, low pressure is likely to exist to the northwest or north of the UK, allowing areas of cloud and rain to spread across the UK from the west, though some more settled interludes are also likely, especially in the southeast. Breezy at times, with temperatures mainly near or below normal. Remaining changeable thereafter as weather systems to move across the country from the west, with northern and western areas typically wettest and a greater chance of dry conditions prevailing in the southeast. There is, however, a smaller chance for either unsettled weather to be more widely prevalent, or for a more quiescent period to develop across the south. Overall, temperatures will likely be near normal, but may feel cool in the west at times.

Through this period, there remains a slightly increased chance of more settled spells of weather developing at times, particularly in the south, and the likelihood of this has been gradually increasing over the past few days. However, there is still a substantial chance of other outcomes too, with more changeable periods also likely. Overall drier than average conditions are more likely than wetter than average, and warmer than average conditions are weakly favoured too.
