It will continue mild this week but with low pressure close by, there will be plenty of rain/showers. Monday will see some showery rain especially in the late afternoon/evening. Tuesday will start bright but more rain will spread in from the west. Brighter on Wednesday but with afternoon showers. This bright morning/showery afternoon pattern will continue also for Thursday and Friday. Over the weekend a small depression will approach from the southwest but at the moment it looks like staying to our south. So mixture of sunshine and cloud on Saturday but mostly dry and a bright cool day then on Sunday. More mild unsettled weather returns for next week.
