bringing increased showers through the rest of the afternoon. some showers will be wintry, particularly over the tops of hills. showers for northern ireland and perhaps north west england. elsewhere, dry with sunny spells around. just the cloud amount is increasing towards the south—west of england towards the end of the day. temperatures more or less where they should be for the time of year. still wintry showers across parts of scotland as we had through tonight. there will be more clout heading in from the south—west, clearer spells here and there. temperatures a little higher across most of southern england, but still a touch of frost from northern england north. this low pressure will push on from the south—west, and that will bring in that milder air. the cloud will increase, winds will pick up, and there will be outbreaks of rain, possibly heavier downpours at times. from southern scotland northwards, we expect a largely dry day. some sunshine, just watch out for a few more wintry

showers over the tops of the hills. colder air hanging on across parts of northern scotland, where it stays windy, but turning milder towards the south. low pressure is set to send more fronts spinning in on wednesday. westerly winds picking up again. more outbreaks of rain moving across parts of scotland, perhaps turning to snow again where it meets the colder air. a slice of sunshine perhaps across central areas, and temperatures starting to rise. goodbye.
