GFS, temperatures, 15:00 GMT Mon 11th February
During Tuesday it turns wet and windy in the north west. Southern counties stay mainly dry. Temperatures should be a little above the mid February average.
Through the rest of the week high pressure becomes increasingly dominant. It leads to a good deal of dry weather, although the north west remains under a more changeable Atlantic air stream.
There has been some uncertainty about the exact positioning of the weather systems. It now looks as though a long fetch south or southwesterly flow will develop and bring very mild conditions. Temperatures could reach 16C (61F) during the second half of the week to give an early taste of spring.
