After the widespread, heavy showers of Tuesday, yesterday was a much quiter day, with the majority of any rain or showers confined just a few parts of the country, as shown on the rain totals for the day.

Today will see even less of the country getting wet, there's some rain to start the day in SE Scotland and NE England which will clear away, the far north and west of Scotland will see some persistent rain, and some some showers will affect S.Ireland, N.Ireland and later this evening swing into NW England. Elsewhere it's mostly dry with some warm sunny spells coming through - especially across central and southern England.

Temperatures today will be up on yesterday for many too, reaching 14-16c widely across the central and eastern half of the UK, peaking at 17-19c in the southeast and East Anglia, but cooler in the cloudier west, and particularly northwest where 10-12c will be more typical.



Through the evening and overnight, a few showers start to turn up into the west of England and Wales, and it'll be a murky cloudy night through many western parts - with some drizzly rain, and mist forming on western facing hills. Into tomorrow, the showery rain will try to push southeast but will tend to fizzle out as it goes. There will be some more cloud around than today, with the south initially the best place to see some good sunny spells but the risk of a shower or two increases into the afternoon and evening. On the flipside, the far north of the country will see the the cloud break-up during the afternoon to bring a sunny end to the day for parts of northern Scotland especially.
