A frontal system pushing down from the north yesterday resulted in a disappointingly cool and damp start to the week across many parts of England whilst further west, across Ireland, sunnier skies helped lift temperatures into the high teens making it feel quite pleasant here.
Today sees that frontal system continuing to clear southwards so although it is a bright and frosty start to the day across the far southeast of England, it will turn cloudy and damp here as that front pushes down from the north and it's likely to be this evening before it clears through. Meanwhile, cloud and rain or drizzle across other parts of England to kick-off the day with will clear from the north so that by this afternoon many regions join much of Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland in enjoying a mainly dry and bright afternoon with plenty of sunny spells.
With more in the way of sunny spells around it will be a slightly warmer day for many areas with maximums widely in the range of 11°C to 14°C, but for sheltered parts of the southwest, maximums in the mid-high teens are again likely with southern Ireland in particular doing very well. However, values may well remain in single figures towards southeast England under that dull and damp weather combined with a northerly breeze.
The last of that damp weather will finally clear southeast England this evening to leave many places with a dry night with clear spells which will lead to another cold night with some frost forming in places. There will be more cloud and breeze towards the east which will prevent a frost, but the odd shower is possible here and this continues into tomorrow otherwise for most places Wednesday is looking mainly dry with some sunny spells.
