Today’s UK weather brings a mix of bright spells and scattered showers, with the heaviest rain across western Scotland and Northern Ireland. Southern and eastern England, including London, will see the best of any dry, sunny intervals. Temperatures remain near average for the season.

What is the outlook for the rest of today and tonight?

Showers will become more isolated through the afternoon, particularly in the Midlands and south-east, though a few may linger near coasts. Into the evening, cloud builds from the west, bringing patchy rain to Wales and south-west England by midnight. Lows range from 8°C in northern Scotland to 13°C in London.

How will the weather change over the next few days?

A low-pressure system approaches from the Atlantic on Tuesday, bringing a wetter and windier spell for most regions. The 10 day weather forecast UK shows the north and west bearing the brunt of the rain, while the south-east stays drier until midweek. By Thursday, brighter but cooler conditions are likely nationwide.
