Tomorrow starts bright but chilly. Showers in the morning become increasingly scattered as a ridge of high pressure topples across the UK. Later in the day outbreaks of rain push into the north west and over high ground they turn to snow.

Mixed weather continues

On Tuesday a band of rain clears southeastwards. It is followed by a mix of sunny spells and wintry showers. All areas will be windy and in the north west gales are likely.

During the rest of the week it stays quite unsettled, especially in the north. In the south it may turn drier for a time but by next weekend quite cold and showery conditions probably return southwards.
