Elsewhere, expect a mix of sunny spells and showers, with showers being more frequent over western parts of Ireland and western Scotland, heavy at times, and wintry over higher ground over Ireland and Scotland. Temperature will rise up to 7C over most parts.

Any remaining rain will soon clear from southeast England, with occasional showers following for most. Showers will be more frequent and heavy over Ireland and Scotland and wintry over high ground. A longer spell of rain is possible to push east overnight over Ireland, Wales, southwest and northern England as well as southern Scotland with some sleet even down to low levels, and snow over higher ground.
