quite as mild as today. i think, in the midlands. stays windy overnight actually into wednesday in the northwest with frequent showers around that low pressure. we've got another weather system coming in overnight to bring some more rain eastwards across england and wales. and again, it moves away fairly quickly, i think, from eastern parts of england. sunshine does follow, but there may well be a bit more cloud on wednesday, bringing in a few more showers, pushing their way into northern england and further eastwards across scotland. again, potentially wintry over the mountain tops, but it's still mild — temperatures around 9—11 degrees. we've got some more weather fronts coming in overnight, familiar pattern. we've got this run of atlantic air, hence the mildness, but we are seeing some further areas of rain. more rain overnight, clears away very quickly by thursday, and then we'll see some sunshine for many places could stay a bit cloudy in the south of england, maybe bring some rain into the southwest. we've got some showers coming into scotland. and notice a northerly breeze here — that's tucking in some colder air, whereas to the south, it's still mild temperatures in double figures. we will see some wet weather moving northwards into that colder air.
