Outbreaks of rain push eastwards today and in places they turn heavy. The unsettled period is set to continue through the rest of the week, but temperatures rise and in sunny spells it will feel more spring like than recently. Things remain mixed this weekend and temperatures could dip again, particularly in the north.

Tuesday starts dry in eastern Britain. Elsewhere it's a mixed picture with rain and hill snow in Scotland.

Through the morning outbreaks of rain push eastwards and there will be some heavy ones mixed in. However, this afternoon showery conditions return from the west, although the rain probably remains more persistent in eastern England and north western Britain. Windy.  

Rather cold. Temperatures range from 5C (41F) in Scotland to 11C (52F) in south western England. See the rain radar for the latest view.
