Some mist and low cloud to start the day, burning back to the coast during the morning.

Elsewhere drier and brighter for a time with sunny spells inland. Highs 17-19C with a light breeze and odd sharp shower.

There's a risk of heavy, thundery showers developing from the north by evening. This will increase the chance of further flooding after Saturday's heavy rainfall.

Mist, low cloud and moisture returns from the North Sea overnight. Damp and murky conditions across many parts of the region - but mild, lows of 9C.

Despite a gloomy beginning conditions will improve for a time inland on Monday. Warm spells of sunshine and just a few scattered sharp showers. Highs inland up to 19C but cooler and cloudier along the coastline at times.

Heavier, slower moving and possibly thundery showers are expected later in the day from the north.
