Monday
High pressure lies to the west, building across Britain and Ireland, resulting in a fair day overall. Lots of sunshine. Some hazy skies across northern regions as high cloud moves in from the west. Low cloud may plague western Scotland much of the day, with rain frequent in the north-west Highlands. A brisk westerly wind for Scotland, gales for the Northern Isles. A northeasterly breeze around the English Channel, but light winds for central counties. Feeling fresh, highs 10 to 14C.

Most places will stay dry. Skies fairly clear, but some high level cloud is likely. Banks of low cloud around the coasts and hills in the north-west, most extensive in western Scotland, where rain or drizzle will persist. Blustery for northern areas, very gusty locally. Lighter winds toward the south. Sheltered spots in Wales and the south-west may see local fog patches, plus the lowest temperatures, 3 to 5C. Typically 6 to 9C, or locally above 10C northern Britain.
