Rain and showers in Scotland and Ireland but contrasting dry and very warm in the south and east

The mixed theme continues this week as low pressure remains west and north. This brings rain and showers, mostly in the north and west. However it will be feeling warm. Many southern and eastern parts seeing very little precipitation, and for some it will be staying dry throughout. Some very warm days in the southeast.
