Scattered fleeting light showers becoming increasingly confined to the far east overnight, with clearer spells inland perhaps allowing a slight grass frost in the most prone rural areas. Minimum temperature 2 °C.

Breezy in the southeast, with scattered showers perhaps becoming heavier and more numerous for a time, before easing to join the northwest in largely fine conditions with some sunshine. Maximum temperature 17 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Fine through this period, with winds easing. Some slight overnight grass frosts are possible inland, but feeling pleasant in sunny spells by day, with temperatures climbing slightly overall.

Overall, high pressure is expected to dominate bringing largely fine and dry conditions. Cloud amounts will be quiet variable, but some decent clear and sunny spells are likely. Northern and western areas are most likely to be the sunniest at first, with central and southeastern areas perhaps cloudier at times. Also cloudier at times across northern Scotland with perhaps some light rain. There is also a chance, albeit low, of showers developing across southern parts of England and Wales at times, especially from next weekend onwards. Temperatures are likely to be a little above normal, feeling pleasantly warm in the sunnier locations. Still rather chilly at night, with potential for ground frost at times in rural areas.

Fairly typical spring weather is considered most likely through the second half of May. Overall, fine and dry weather is more likely to dominate although this will be interspersed with occasional spells of rain and showers, with a risk of heavy rain and thunderstorms in places. Overall, temperatures will most likely be near or slightly above average.
