but we still have that cold northerly blowing in, so i think a chance of showers again almost anywhere along that north sea coast, could be a few showers developing inland. the best of the weather on the south coast, southwestern parts of england here, but still only around 12 or 13, which is below the average for the time of the year. and then towards the end of the week, we could see some showers developing across eastern and central areas of the uk. some of them could be heavy. there's even a chance of a bit of a wintry mix, particularly across the high hills and the tops of the mountains. and no surprise here because of these values, only around nine celsius in newcastle and eastern scotland. now, how about into next weekend? well, low pressure will be paying us a visit, so rather than the high, which is now way out in the atlantic, low pressure will draw in some slightly milder air from the south, but that, of course, means thicker cloud and occasional showers, so we're back to april showers by the time we get to the weekend. so here's the outlook from friday onwards into the weekend. yes, slightly milder.
