Weather forecast
There will be fog in many areas at first this morning, dense in places. This will clear gradually in most parts this morning, with some bright or sunny spells developing, especially in the southwest and west.
However, it will remain mostly cloudy in the northeast, east and southeast, with showery outbreaks of rain. There will be scattered showers elsewhere, a few of them heavy in places, though a few areas will stay largely or completely dry. Maximum temperatures will range from 10°C to 14°C, in a light variable breeze.
