A sunny start for Sunday!
A day of mixed fortunes today, with some places enjoying more sunny spells than others. Overnight we have a mix of cloud, clear spells and clear skies. Temperatures will fall back to 4C - enough for a touch of grass frost. There may be a little mist around too, thanks to light variable winds.
Sunday starts with plenty of sunny spells around. There will be some thicker cloud building for some during the day, but many places will continue to enjoy the sunshine through the day. In the sunshine we could see 17C, which will feel nice without much wind around.
The days ahead see low pressure nearby bringing cloud, but these features are dying away so it shouldn't bring any rain. Temperatures won't fare too badly in spite of the lack of sunshine and a northerly breeze.

Hundreds gather at Cardiff education rally
Welsh teachers have packed a conference hall in Cardiff to speak out over pay and working conditions in the profession.
Speakers from the main teaching unions NASUWT and NUT also said they wanted to 'defend' the education system here, which they claim politicians 'are determined to wreck'.
The Welsh Government says measures have been put in place to raise standards and performance, but added issues concerning pay and conditions are a matter for the UK Government as they are not devolved to Wales.

Today's rally was held ahead of planned industrial action later this year.

Plenty of dry weather to enjoy across Wales!
by James WrightWe start the weekend with a little bit of good news with the rain that was expected across the northern half of the country deciding to take a more northerly path. As a result, there's a lot more dry weather to enjoy across Wales. It looks like there could be some more good news for tomorrow too!
The rest of the day will see brighter weather across southern parts with thicker cloud in the north. The cloud could be thick enough to see some light rain and it will feel a little on the cool side.

Welsh Government: 'School standards must improve'
– Welsh Government spokespersonThere can be little argument that standards and performance in schools in Wales need to improve. The PISA results in 2010 along with evidence from Estyn and exam results confirm the urgency.
The Minister has put in place a number of measures to raise standards and performance in education across the board. We will continue to implement these measures to raise literacy and numeracy levels and cut the link between poverty and low attainment.
We must act for the benefit of our learners.
On the subject of pay and conditions for teachers, the Welsh Government stressed that the issue is not a devolved matter in Wales, adding: "The issues Unions have on this matter are for the UK Government."
– Welsh Government spokespersonThe Minister for Education and Skills has made it clear in his evidence to the School Teachers' Review Body (STRB) that he does not believe a link between pay progression and performance is necessary where an effective system of managing performance is already in place.
He has also consistently stated that we should retain a national pay structure for teachers in Wales and England. Such a system ensures fairer, more equitable and more cost effective way of administering pay than one where pay is determined locally.
