Sunday: Patchy and light spells of rain move down across northern and central England, and Wales. Generally dry to their north and south, although a few showers are possible in the northern half of Scotland.

Outlook: Most of the UK has settled weather, but there is still the possibility of rain at times in the far north. The risk of fog continues, and as temperatures start dipping the potential for frost increases.
