Drier weather today, but remaining generally unsettled
[Updated 06:45 16/05/2012]

The cool weather will continue today, but it should be drier than recently with fewer showers, and some places are likely to remain completely dry, especially in the south. Despite the improvement the general theme is for further unsettled weather during the days ahead. Thursday will bring cloud and rain to the north, and then as we head into the weekend there is the risk of showers or longer spells of rain returning from the south, but at least temperatures should pick up. Despite the mixed weather summer is only days away, and if you're heading to a festival or planning a barbecue, remember to check the site tools available to help. Our
