Low pressure stays west of Ireland on Sunday with an occluded front perhaps brushing through southeast England, together with troughs.
There is the risk of some more persistent rain in the southeast due to the proximity of the trough and front. These are likely to be affecting much of southern England too. Further showers over western Wales and western England but probably tending to be drier and brighter in Scotland and through eastern England.
Eastern Ireland is also likely to be dry although there will be rain frequent showers and stronger winds affecting the west coasts and hills of Ireland.
