Welcome to the Breakfast Brief, offering your first forecast of the day and a look back at what you may have missed.

Weather outlook

Plenty of rain around today, starting from sunrise into the night. Most notably from midday across Ireland, where there is potential for thundery outbreaks in the west. Into the afternoon, we see rain stretch almost cover the UK entirely.
