WE can expect a wet start to the week here in Somerset with outbreaks of heavy rain sweeping across the South West this morning.

These bursts of heavy rain will be accompanied by strong winds however it should ease off this afternoon, leading to showers this evening with temperatures during the day staying around 9 degrees centigrade.

Overnight there will still be some showers and the skies will be largely cloudy but it will stay frost free for most.
