Breakfast brief
Broadly fine with plenty of sunshine

Mainly dry and sunny across the board, the exception of some showers in the north and west.

Kickstarting your morning

Welcome to the breakfast brief, offering your daily weather forecast and a sneak peek at the day's news. 

Weather outlook

A mild start and largely fine day to come across the board, with plenty of sunshine and temperatures reaching the high-teens.

A few showers are possible, mainly in the north and west, with these becoming a little heavier and more organised across Scotland heading into the evening.

What's coming up in the news

The UK and Ireland could see the first named storm of the season this weekend, though we are continuing to track the system. Before that, refresh yourself on the names we can expect over the coming year with our guide later today.
