Temperatures are set to rise today, the Met Office has said.

Despite the mercury dipping below freezing over the weekend, forecasters have said that the worst is over, and we can look forward to some warmer temperatures.

A Met Office forecaster said: "After a cold start, many will have a dry and fine day with sunny spells. It will remain breezy but with lighter winds than on Sunday. The temperatures will recover closer to average. Maximum temperature 6 °C.

"After a frosty start tomorrow, it will be dry and fine on Tuesday with lighter winds. It will turn more unsettled thereafter with spells of rain and strengthening winds, although with temperatures recovering closer to average."
