A bright day in England, cloudy in Scotland with rain arriving here from Ireland; staying windy.

Good morning,

Another bright day for England today though remaining breezy. Generally bright too in Wales before cloud begins to take over from the west. A similar story in Scotland but the cloud is likely to arrive much earlier. This shield of cloud is associated with a front sweeping across Ireland which will bring a period of heavy rain to most through the midday hours. Interestingly, the winds will ease for a time with the rain. This rain will reach west Scotland afternoon. A mild day of highs from 8 to 11C, though may rapidly cool a few degrees in west Ireland later.

This band of rain will continue its eastward trek overnight crossing much of Scotland except the southeast, and reaching into Wales and southwest England. Heavy bursts are likely here. Most of central and east England will remain dry until the later hours but cloud will build and perhaps some drizzle forming near the southern coasts. Behind the front in Ireland, clear skies will become predominate, this allowing temperatures to lower to around 3C. Over Britain, low temperatures will reach 5C north to 9C southeast.

Enjoy the day!
