We hope you made the most of the dry weekend, as it’s about to get rather wet.

Forecasters have predicted a rainy spell will start on Thursday and could drag on for 10 days across much of the country.

BBC Weather even suggests it will rain every single day in many parts of the UK, including in London, Bristol, Sheffield, Liverpool and Manchester.

The rain is set to start even earlier in other areas, with parts of Wales and northwest England due wet weather from today.

Temperatures at the beginning of the week, will hover just below average (around 9-12°C) but will feel cooler due to chilly winds.

Cold nights, with temperatures falling to as low as -2°C, could also bring snow and frost to higher ground in North Wales and Scotland.

It should feel a touch warmer from Thursday, before temperatures rise again towards the end of the month.

London, for example, is set to enjoy an average of 17°C from next Monday until around May 4.

From then on temperatures will likely sit at normal or a little above normal for that time of year, with an average rise of 1°C per week, according to The Met Office.

In terms of rain, the Met Office predicts an average amount in early May for the south, while the north may see a bit less than usual.
