hello there. it's fair to say that rainfall has not been distributed evenly across the uk in the last five weeks or so. in hampshire, where there is a hosepipe ban in force at the moment, we've had no rain in odiham since the start ofjuly, whereas in the highlands there's been almost ten inches of rain, and we've seen a few spots of rain and drizzle today in western scotland. that's why the temperatures here have been a bit lower, but on the whole a warmer afternoon than it was yesterday with temperatures widely into the mid 20s across england and wales in the sunshine. overnight tonight, we'll have clear skies in many places. we'll see a little more rain approaching the far north—west of scotland by the end of the night. but ahead of it, those temperatures will fall away to around 11 or 12 degrees. there are some much warmer nights on the way later on in the week. this is how we start the week, though, and we've got some rain and, again, it's in the highlands and islands of scotland, but elsewhere it's going to be dry — nothing more than some fair weather cloud.
