Some early morning sunshine across eastern parts of England to begin, but a band of cloud, and perhaps some patchy rain, across central portions of England, will continue to move eastwards and weaken. Further sunny spells will develop across most parts from the west, chance of the odd shower. Thickening cloud across western UK later in the day with outbreaks of rain into Northern Ireland. Another mild day but locally warm in southeast England – This is the Met Office UK Weather forecast for the morning of 18/03/24. Bringing you today’s weather forecast is Craig Snell.
