This week's weather...keep a brolly to hand
As we move into a new week, the weather still remains disappointing for the time of year.
We appear to be sandwiched between two pressure systems. Low pressure to the east and high pressure to the west.
With a northerly air flow, it seems we are going to be influenced by both systems at times.
It's a week where you may wish to keep an umbrella to hand.
There will be rain at times, some showers, but also some dry and bright spells too.
Whilst there is still room for change (and in particular some uncertainty as to how much rain or not we will see across the London area on Tuesday), this is our current thinking:
Rest of today
After a dry evening, it will turn increasingly cloudy and damp overnight, with some rain or drizzle.
A misty and murky night with some fog forming in places.
It's worth bearing in mind the fog might have an impact on travel conditions tomorrow morning.
Rain will clear through the day tomorrow, to leave a drier and brighter afternoon.
Tuesday will be generally cloudy with a risk of rain.
Wednesday is likely to start dry and bright but with cloud building. Cloud thick enough to produce some spots of rain.
Thursday will turn rather breezy.

Met commissioner 'protected integrity of investigation'
– Metropolitan Police statementThe Commissioner has been repeatedly questioned about Operation Alice (the police investigation into the 'Plebgate' affair) by members of the Home Affairs Committee and by journalists, including in the meetings with a variety of publications on the 25th and 26th March which are documented in our media contact register. He has always sought to allow the MPS to be held to account by providing accurate information whilst protecting the integrity of the investigation.
Met chief under pressure over 'Plebgate' leak
The Sunday Times is reporting that Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe is under growing pressure to resign over the leaking of details of the police inquiry into the Andrew Mitchell 'Plebgate' affair.
A freedom of information (FoI) request has reportedly revealed that Hogan-Howe had a private meeting with journalists just before they wrote articles claiming officers had found no evidence to support the former cabinet minister’s version of events.
The newspaper says the reply from Hogan-Howe’s office to the FoI request suggested that the meeting did take place but failed to disclose details of what was said.
Mitchell’s friends are now calling for Hogan-Howe to explain what was said at the meeting and provide details of his diary, tape recordings and notes.
The lack of detail has led to allegations of a cover up and calls from senior Conservatives for the commissioner to resign.
