Day 13 - cooler & cloudier

Largely dry but cloudier and cool for many, with the best of any brightness across southwest England and Wales. Drizzle still possible in northern and eastern parts of the UK.

An area of high pressure is the dominating feature at the start of the period and this is expected to drift southwards as the week goes on.

This results in brisk easterly winds over southern areas gradually easing, while cloud amounts increase generally across the country as the weather system becomes slow-moving and gathers extra moisture.

Daytime temperatuers will gradually fall under this cloudy regime, but overnight frost and fog are only likely where cloud clears for any length of time.

High pressure is expected to finally give way at the end of the week and over the weekend, with stronger winds and outberaks of rain spreading south to all parts.
