During the afternoon they slowly push northwards. In the south and west sunny spells become more widespread but showers are likely too.

Temperatures range from a very chilly 10C (50F) in the northeast to about 16C (61F) in areas where the cloud breaks. See the rain radar for the latest view.

Tonight the wet weather moves into Scotland. Elsewhere showers become scattered, and under clearing skies it will be cold with the risk of a local ground frost.

Tomorrow rain continues in Scotland. Elsewhere widespread and heavy showers are expected but it will be brighter at times, particularly in the south.
