Dry overall but increasingly chilly

High pressure is going to be having the most influence on our weather in the coming week, but this will be bringing cooling conditions for all. There could be soe cloud and outbreaks of drizzle in the east and south at times, whilst northern and western areas tend to stay drier and brighter. A brisk wind on several days this week making it feel chillier.
