Sunshine to make a welcome return today but there is still a risk of rain

After the consistently heavy showers throughout yesterday, there is a welcome return of some dry weather in store for much of today.

It will be dry to begin with, and it will be mostly settled as winds remain very light for the early parts of Saturday. There will even be patches of sunshine breaking through at various stages in the morning, bringing some bright weather for periods. However, showers will push in from western areas during the afternoon, leading to scattered outbreaks of rain in some places.

Those downpours will clear up once again in the evening though, and it will be dry from then on. Highest afternoon temperatures will reach 14-17 degrees.

Tonight will be mainly dry once again, with winds staying very light. Lowest overnight temperatures will be around 7-10 degrees.
