"However, there'll be isolated showers too, mainly along northern coasts initially and later in the southwest. It will feel milder than recent days with highs 15C to 19C, highest across the midlands. "Overall dry and calm tonight with some clear spells - just the odd shower along south and southwest coasts later. Lowest temperatures 7C to 10C."
