Northern parts of the country will see rain and showers, especially Scotland where some heavy downpours are possible this afternoon.
A few showers are possible in the south but these lighter and more isolated than in recent days, with some sunshine.
Rain will reach the far southwest later, bringing a 12-hour deluge to some parts of the West Country.
Showers mostly dying out but some persisting across Scotland. Clear spells for many, but heavy rain moving northwards across much of England and Wales. Gales affecting some English Channel coasts.
