For many of us today starts on a pretty cloudy note, with just the southeast corner seeing lots of the sun, but the bits and pieces of rain, murk and cloud will slowly clear through the day. The roles then reverse this later this afternoon and evening, as much of the country enjoys a fine end to the day but the southeast corner will be at risk of some sharp showers.

Temperature wise today, it'll warm up nicely as the sun gets to work, with England and Wales reaching into the mid-high teens or even low twenties. Scotland and Northern Ireland peaking into the mid-teens, but cooler in the north and west of Scotland.



Overnight, any showers in the southeast ease away, leaving the bulk of the country dry with clear spells. It'll be a cool night, especially for the northern half of the UK - parts of Scotland will see a ground frost.

Saturday then starts on a fine, dry and for many, sunny note. It stays that way too for the bulk of the country, with just the outside risk of a shower in central parts of England but you'll be very unlucky to see one. Change will be afoot from the northwest through the day though with cloud spilling into Northern Ireland, western and northern Scotland during the morning and rain, along with blustery winds moving in during the afternoon.



The rain then continues to move southeast during the latter part of the, overnight and into Sunday, reaching the southeast of England by early afternoon. By this stage the rain, which will have been heavy at times further north and west, will have become more patchy and light though. Behind the front, plenty of dry, bright weather but it will be cooler with a few showery outbreaks of rain affecting the far north and west.
