sea command is particularly fresh along north sea coasts. as well as that, we have increasing amounts of cloud. the low cloud we had across south—west england is starting to lift but we are drawing in more cloud in eastern areas. in the afternoon the chance of one or two showers in north—east scotland, is anglia and towards the south—east but most places remain dry, some bright or sunny intervals to be had but still feeling cool, particularly in the breeze down the north sea coast. the best temperatures of the further west you are but even they are below average for the time of year. as we head into the evening, the wind will strengthen for northern ireland and the west coast of scotland, but tending to dissipate as the night goes on. under clear skies once again, going to be chilly, many places seeing a touch of frost first thing particularly in rural spots where temperatures will dip below freezing. as we head into the weekend it will be very similar, settled so many places remaining dry. still cool but we will get some sunshine. the

showers possibly packing some of these north sea coast. the sunshine is becoming more limited, claudia towards the west, northern ireland and wales and the south—west. some strong winds here. a chilly field of the day certainly, and those temperatures are a bit disappointing for this time of the year. nine or10 disappointing for this time of the year. nine or 10 degrees is a fairly typical number. through this evening and overnight, what we will find is that a lot of cloud that builds up during the day melts away as the sun goes down, so skies were clear. we still have this area of cloud out towards the far west keeping the temperatures up. generally, not as cold as it was over the past few nights. the main reason for that is, while we are seeing clear skies we have a strong wind arriving. cloud coming into the north sea coast, bringing one or two showers. a slice of sunshine before more cloud in wales in the south coast. temperatures beginning to creep up a little bit, 11—12 degrees. this deep area of low pressure is running very clos

that area of low pressure bringing wet weather back in from the north sea. maybe a few icy patches early in the morning. a touch of frost around as well. maybe a bit of snow over the tops of the north york moors. but most of the wet weather looks like it's going to come back into scotland now on wednesday. rain with some sleet and snow over the hills. elsewhere, some sunshine but also a few sharp showers. the winds will be a bit stronger for many of us on wednesday, especially across northern and western areas. and although these the sort of temperatures we're looking at — so well below average for this time of year — when you add on the strength of the wind, it will feel significantly colder, especially in scotland. combined with that wet weather, it will be a pretty miserable day for this time of the year. so we're pushing down colder air. at the same time, we have this area of low pressure and that's going to sit around probably until thursday as well. so we're left with this sort of weather pattern, with spirals of cloud and showers, along with spell

quite chilly, particularly along the north sea coast. otherwise, temperatures around ten or 13 celsius. tonight, there will still be cloud in eastern areas, otherwise with lengthy clear spells it will turn quite cold tonight, widespread frost for england, wales and southern scotland, temperatures just below freezing. thursday, pretty cold start but for many it is a bright and sunny start. some cloud developing across eastern areas again and that could drift further west. by far the best of the sentient will be across western areas, matchups at —— maximum temperatures down slightly on today. these are below the average for the time of year. high—pressure centre near scandinavia is keeping things in charge at the moment, blocking these rain bearing weather systems from getting too close, so another dry day on friday. again, some cloud moving in from the east but also some sunshine at times throughout friday. temperatures struggling. between eight and 11 celsius. into the weekend, we keep some cool conditions across eastern parts, are

low pressure systems pushing out into the north sea. southern and western areas of that will continue to see the strongest of the winds. lighter winds to north—eastern parts of england for the time being, that will change later on and certainly across scotland much lighter winds. some slow moving and maybe heavy and thundery showers here. the odd shower but with more sunshine across southern counties of england and wales. it is north wales, north west midlands, north west england and to the east of northern ireland, persistent rain here could cause some minorflooding. and it's these areas, not only will it be quite cool, with temperatures around 7—9 degrees, but it's also where we still see the strongest of the winds, 40—50 miles an hour quite easily. and as i said the winds later will pick up across some eastern counties of england. further outbreaks of rain across england and wales and south—west scotland as we go into the night. much of that will gradually start to ease, clearer skies developing here and there. and a colder n

breezy here, cooler than elsewhere and the breeze still keeping some north sea and english channel coasts cooler than elsewhere but you have the sunshine, most of us high teens and low 20s, some spots near the mid—20s giving the warmest easter sunday on record a run for its money. pollen sufferers, though, know it is quite high out there for tree pollen so, yes, some of us are suffering as a result. this is how it looks through sunday night and into easter monday. still with outbreaks of rain towards the western isles, keeping it breezy here as well. elsewhere, though, is still mainly dry and clear and low single figures in the cooler spots towards parts of eastern england and again it could turn misty in a few places. easter monday, this is how this is shaping up. notice the difference between northern and western scotland. that weather system, as we saw earlier has backed away so we are back in the sunshine here. there will be an increasing breeze and more in the way of high cloud pushing in from the south during easter monday so sun will be increasingly hazy. temperatures for some of

sea. most of us not having a particularly chilly night, maybe parts of eastern england and eastern scotland getting relatively close to freezing. so we get on into tuesday, and it is more of the same, to all intents and purposes. still some rain in the west, heavier rain for northern ireland, maybe fringing into western scotland, the far west of wales and cornwall later in the day. further east, some spells of sunshine, and for many of us tuesday will be the warmest day of the week, with highs between 17—20 degrees. i say tuesday will be the warmest day of the week because that warmth isn't going to last. as we move out of tuesday into wednesday, this front which will have been in the west eventually moves its way eastwards, taking cloud and showery rain with it. the rain will be quite sporadic, quite on—and—off, and there is some uncertainty aboutjust how quickly this band of cloud and rain will slide its way eastwards. but ahead of this band of cloud and rain, this frontal system,

scotland are still looking fine but the north sea coast maybe a little on the cool side there. that is midweek towards the end of the week it really will be a big change because we say goodbye to the mild air. the warm air is long gone but colder currents of air from the north atlantic arrive, breezy conditions as well, showers possible. so the outlook says it all, really, a lot of shower symbols here with temperatures dropping to below average for some of us and towards the weekend even struggling towards the weekend even struggling to make double figures across northern areas. i'm ben bland with bbc news. our top story: the funerals of many of those killed in sunday's bomb attack in sri lanka are due to be held on tuesday. questions are being asked about what the security services knew after the prime minister said they'd been "aware of information" about possible attacks, but he hadn't been told. the us says it will end exemptions from sanctions for countries that buy oil from iran. secretary of state, mike pompeo, said the aim was to put maximum pressure on iran's governmen

still rather cool around some of those exposed north sea coasts. moving on into the middle of the week, wednesday could start with a little bit of patchy mist, particularly for wales, the south—west of england. that should clear. a bit of patchy cloud here and there. all in all a dry and fine day. the top averages up to 17 or 18 in the south, even the mid—teens further north. certainly a bit of a warmer spell of weather. that warmer drier theme continues into thursday does a warmer spell. so we‘ve got a gentle breeze coming in from the south—east. just the chance of an isolated shower. but i think for the vast majority of places it is dry and bright. and we could well see 19 or 20 celsius by the time we get to thursday, particularly in the south. even further north those temperatures in the mid or even the high teens. so doing well for the time of year. and it looks like the mostly dry warm weather continues with the easter weekend, just the chance of light rain in the far north—west. bye for now. this is bbc news, the headlines: tiger wo

temperatures are still cooler on that north sea coast. a high of between seven and 12 celsius. that takes us into the weekend and it will remain chilly. further dry weather to come and also some further dry weather to come and also some sunshine at times. i think the best of the sunshine will be on saturday. here we have another chilly start to the day. could wake up chilly start to the day. could wake up to chilly start to the day. could wake uptoa chilly start to the day. could wake up to a patchy frost. areas of cloud but good spells of sunshine and the risk of one or two showers feeding into the south—east. they could be fairly heavy with hail mixed in. temperatures below average for the time of the year, 7—11dc. i think it will turn more breezy the further west you are. saturday night into sunday, high pressure remains in charge, still in the cool air mass. another chilly day on sunday. a bit more in the way of cloud but again the sunny spells to be had. cloudy skies the further west you are and the further west parts of northern ireland and south—west england, you c

along the north sea coastline. in the west we have rain across parts of northern ireland, south—west wales, and south—west england. gusty winds here as well. temperatures today, looking at highs of up to 1a degrees. along the north sea coastline it is more likely to be 7—9. through the evening and overnight there will be cloud around. the weather front makes a little bit more progress eastwards. again there will be the odd heavy burst on it and temperatures tonight between four and eight. tomorrow we start off on a cloudy note. we will continue on a cloudy node. much more so than today. the weather front still drifting east, getting into was the west midlands. we should see some of that rain getting into the south—east. it will be light and patchy. again, cool along the north sea coastline. inland temperatures continue to claim. tomorrow's high likely to be around 15. for wednesday we the mist and patches for wales and south—west england to begin with. they will lift. we're looking at largely dry day for
