GENERAL SITUATION ACROSS THE UK
Low pressure over France will drive some outbreaks of rain across southern counties today, but otherwise pressure is slack across the UK and the weather fair.
FORECAST FOR NORTHAMPTONSHIRE
It's a bright and sunny start to the day across Northamptonshire this morning. Although cloud will tend to develop, we are likely to retain the sunshine for much of the day. It will become warm by mid afternoon with temperatures expected to reach 18C. Cloud will develop still further overnight as scattered outbreaks of mainly light rain move in from the North Sea. Lows will fall to around 11C. The wind, calm at first, will tend to lift through the day becoming a gentle northerly by this evening.
OUTLOOK
Monday is likely to remain rather cloudy with continued outbreaks of light rain or drizzle not really clearing until the evening. Despite the rain, it will continue to feel fairly warm with temperatures climbing to around 17C falling overnight to 11C. The wind will remain a gentle northerly. Tuesday's weather will be pretty much a re-run of Monday; it will remain cloudy with further outbreaks of light rain or drizzle and still with a gentle northerly breeze. It will feel a touch cooler with highs reaching 15C, falling overnight to 9C. High pressure will attempt to move in from the west on Wednesday, but although the day will start fine, outbreaks of rain will move southwards during the afternoon tied into a frontal system driven by low pressure over southern Scandinavia. This low pressure system is set to win the battle through Thursday and Friday: both days will see outbreaks of rain, the rain becoming more widespread on Friday.
