"Towards the end of the week it is certainly possible that the cold weather will include hail, sleet showers and snow, especially on higher ground," said Met Office meteorologist John West. Forecasters are predicting average temperatures of around 12 to 14C for much of the week ahead, with "no high numbers" of the kind enjoyed by much of the UK in recent days. "The UK today is generally dry across much of England and Wales with bright or sunny spells but will generally be cloudier than it has been of late," said Greg Dewhurst, meteorologist at the Met Office. For the rest of the month, the outlook is a mix of rain and sunny spells, which forecasters say is "pretty normal" for the time of year, Hay fever sufferers have been warned that the pollen count is high across southern England and Wales today, as well as on Wednesday and Thursday.
