Sunday 10th May Good morning. It’s Sunday, 10 May 2026, and for much of the UK it’s a fairly quiet spring day, with a good deal of cloud around but also some brighter breaks, especially at times through the morning and later in the day. The south-west looks like one of the milder spots, with temperatures reaching around 18°C where any sunshine comes through. Wales and the south-east should also feel reasonably pleasant, generally in the mid-teens, though a light to moderate breeze will take the edge off at times. Across the Midlands and northern England, it’s a dry picture for most, with early brightness in places before cloud becomes more extensive. Temperatures here are mostly around 13 or 14°C, cooler towards north-eastern coastal areas, where highs may struggle closer to 11°C. Scotland and Northern Ireland will also stay largely dry, with a fresh feel first thing — particularly in parts of Scotland, where rural spots start quite chilly. Through the day, expect a mix of cloud and occasional sunny intervals, with highs generally around 12 or 13°C. The one area to watch is the east of England, where a little patchy drizzle is possible, but amounts look small and many places will barely notice it. Winds are not especially strong, though coastal areas may feel a bit brisk. So overall: mostly dry, rather cloudy at times, with the best of the mildness in the south-west and the coolest conditions towards the north and east. A decent day for getting out and about, though a light jacket will still be useful, especially early and near the coast.

A breezy spring afternoon on a Northern Irish coastal footpath, with pale sunlight breaking through high cloud over grassy headlands and a calm grey-blue sea.
