Any lingering showers will die out early in the night, becoming dry with clear spells. Lowest temperatures of 0 to 5 degrees in light variable breezes, falling near calm at times, allowing mist and fog to develop.

Tuesday

Mist and fog will again clear away during the morning but patches may linger on coasts for a time. Good sunshine will develop for most but there will be scattered showers as well. Highest temperatures of 11 to 15 degrees in light northeasterly or variable breezes.

Scattered showers will ease for a time before picking up again later in the night, mainly in the north and east. Cloud will build from the north too during the night and mist and fog patches will develop. Lowest temperatures of 1 to 5 degrees in light northerly or variable breezes.
