Amounts of rain this week will be small. Temperatures are on the up but it will turn a little cooler later in the week. A mixture of sunny spells and some cloud on Monday. A chance of light shower on Tuesday but with some sunshine too. Wednesday to Friday should hold dry too with a mixture of cloud and sunshine. Towards the weekend the prospects are for it to turn a bit cooler with more cloud around but still not much rain. Still a bit cool for next week and more of a risk of some rain towards mid week.
