    East of England weather forecast

    Headline:

    Cloud encroaching overnight, gradually brightening up through Saturday.

    Today:

    A cool and rather cloudy start, dry though. The cloud will gradually burn back to the coast to give a fine afternoon, with warm sunshine for most. Possibly cooler along some of Norfolk coasts where the cloud may linger. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

    Tonight:

    Low cloud will once again spread inland to become extensive by the end of the night. Although largely dry, the odd spot of drizzle cannot be ruled out locally. Minimum temperature 6 °C.

    Sunday:

    Dry with plenty of warm sunshine after a rather cloudy and cool start. Temperatures above average, but cooler near the coast. Low cloud spreading back inland overnight. Maximum temperature 21 °C.

    Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

    Mainly fine, with warm sunshine after some cloudy and cool starts, although a risk of isolated showers from Monday. Temperatures above average, but cooler and breezier near some coasts.
