Chilly winds are heading our way after a soggy Bank Holiday Monday.
But Examiner weatherman Paul Stevens says: "Don’t write the summer off just yet!"
Yet it could be bad timing for many as the higher temperatures could hit next week as many school children head back after their long summer break.
“It hasn’t been that bad for the Bank Holiday weekend as a whole,” said Paul.
“We’ve had two reasonable days. The rain has only really come along with a shower on Saturday afternoon and then overnight we’ve only had 7-8mm which isn’t a massive amount.
“Clearly today, It’s a wet day – you certainly know its been raining. But it hasn’t been one of those complete wash out weekends.
“For the rest of the week it will continue as it has been.
“High pressure developing out in the Atlantic and bulging north wards up towards Iceland.
“Low pressure, which has brought the rain on Monday, is slowly heading off towards Scandinavia.
“That drags the wind down – it’s not far off the arctic.
“We will see some bright weather Tuesday, Wednesday and possibly as far as Thursday. But scattered showers.
“It will feel chilly, certainly through the day, with temperatures in the range of 15°C-17°C (59°F-62°F.”
But the good news is that by next weekend the cold front could pass with temperatures above normal.
“We will gradually lose the cold air, by next weekend,” Paul added. “Then we should see sunshine coming along gradually as the high pressure slips into the south east bringing the final bursts of summer.”
