very close to freezing. and brightest of the weather. further south, here's our next lump of rain. and east anglia as we go through the morning. from the southeast corner. winds which could gust up to 45 or 50 miles per hour. elsewhere, it'll be a breezy day. yes, not as windy. and again, we're going to see a mixture of sunshine and showers. the west midlands, northern ireland and northwest scotland particularly. as well as as some sunny spells. those temperatures, though, really struggling. 11 to 15 degrees at best. something just a bit

warmer. and the skies tend to clear out. most of the showers will fade away. the breeze will ease a little bit as well. and as we get into monday, high pressure starts to work its way in. for a time. of rain at times, and it will be a little bit cooler.
