Warm in the south

The next few days are looking mixed. On Tuesday showery conditions are likely and temperatures will be close to the average. Wednesday could see scattered showers, but in sunny spells it is likely to become warm, especially in the south. Thursday could be dry and warm in much of the UK, but a weather front pushing in from the Atlantic brings a risk of rain to the north west.
