We had some much needed rain over the weekend. At RAF Valley 35mm (almost 1.5 inches) of rain fell in 48 hours - more rain than throughout the whole of April!

There's been some more heavy downpours today with gusty winds, hail and thunder but not everywhere was wet as the Pembrokeshire coast became bright and sunny.

The outlook for the rest of this week is mixed with low pressure bringing a risk of further showers but who gets the showers will vary from day to day.

Temperatures around average 14 to 17 Celsius but turning cooler later in the week and I wouldn't rule out some ground frost in some rural spots next weekend.Ìý
