to clear away from eastern parts of england out into the north sea. we've still got some rain in the far north of scotland, but otherwise this west to south—westerly breeze will bring sunshine and a scattering of showers on monday. those will get blown into some eastern areas but there will be some sunshine in between. we are still making a mild 15 degrees in scotland and 17, maybe 18 across eastern parts of england. now, this is the general weather pattern, really, over the rest of the week. this is the jet stream, the upper level winds, you can see how that is buckled to the west of the uk, not really changing very much. within that buckle, you find areas of low pressure spinning around and bringing us most of the rain. but because of the orientation of the jet stream, we are on the warmer side of it so we have got winds coming from a long way south bringing us those higher temperatures. as we head into tuesday, we started generally dry with some sunshine, there will be a few showers around first thing, one or two continuing in the west, and then as the southerly wind picks up, the cloud will thicken in the south—west and we will start to see some rain coming in here. a lot of places, though,

will have a dry day, probably, on tuesday. it is still pretty mild, temperatures still reaching 17 or 18 degrees. still got low pressure sitting to the west of the uk, then, and around it, this weather front is focusing all the rain, that rain could turn heavy and thundery as it runs northwards overnight, sitting across more northern parts of the uk early on wednesday and then moving away. still got those brisk southerly winds, those will bring a mixture of sunshine and showers, and again, most of the showers will be towards the western parts of the uk. with those temperatures beginning to rise a bit in that sunshine there across many eastern areas. we continue to run those winds from a long way south, more areas of low pressure pushing more rain in, mainly across the western side of the uk. there will be a few showers around on thursday, some of them could be heavy and thundery, but more in the way of sunshine coming out across eastern parts of the uk. still with those southerly winds so temperatures still continuing to rise, could make 21 in the south—east of england. and those temperatures are about four or five degrees above the average.
