UK weather forecast: Severe gales and showers but African plume brings balmy 17C highs

Brits are set for heavy rain and severe gales over the coming days but temperatures will be well above normal for the time of year with highs of at least 17C.

It has been an unsettled week so far with a low pressure bringing the wind and showers which were heaviest in many areas on Monday and brought Met Office yellow warnings.

Over the coming days it is a similar outlook but a high pressure system moving across Europe will also bring warm air up from Africa to the country and it will be unseasonably mild especially at night where it will remain in the mid-teens.
