In a far cry from the recent weather trends for flood warnings and grey skies, the Easter Weekend is set to be mostly dry and sunny.

That's according to meteorologists at the Met Office, whose latest forecasts predict that we're in for a dry spell of weather.

While today, April 5, is set to feature heavy rain showers throughout the day, after tomorrow, where there may be a few light showers during the day, things are about to get brighter.

However, despite the sunny weather, things are not set to get much warmer, particularly at night, with temperatures set to stay in single figures through the night.

Temperatures are set to drop across the next two days overnight, with a minimum overnight temperature for Thursday of 2c.
