After having the coldest weather in four years, today we will be considerably milder despite plenty of clouds, as high pressure off the southeast coast gives us a southwesterly flow.

Monday will have more sunshine and continued mild temperatures. A weak cold front will come through dry Monday evening and Tuesday will be slightly cooler but still above normal on a northerly flow.

Wednesday will again be mostly sunny and mild.

Mild weather to continue Thursday into the weekend but a couple of low pressure areas will give us a good chance of rain Thursday and again on Saturday.
