we could see a few showers across the far west of scotland, across the far north of scotland, but elsewhere tuesday afternoon. now, a similar pattern, as that front moves its way into the area of high pressure it will tend to weaken, so as we head through wednesday, a quieter day, but also behind it notice the colours have changed slightly. this is looking at temperature. so we are likely to see something a bit cooler on wednesday, perhaps cool enough that the showers we will see across scotland in the morning could be wintry over the highest ground. they will move away for most on wednesday. a quiet day, mainly dry, a bit more in the way of sunshine, but temperatures will be in high single figures across scotland on wednesday, so it will be feeling a bit cooler, 8 or 9 celsius, 11—13 elsewhere. wednesday, we have high pressure to the south of the uk, low pressure to the north. notice still some fronts around bringing outbreaks of rain eastwards across parts of northern scotland. further south it should stay mainly dry, certainly for england and wales and for much of northern ireland it is
