Today, the weather in the UK will be quite different depending on where you are. The Met Office has issued a warning for a "three-way split" in weather conditions, with the north of England expected to experience heavy rain. This is due to a band of rain that stretches from southern Scotland to south west England, causing a stark contrast in temperatures across the country.
In the south and east, temperatures will remain mild, with some areas even reaching a high of 14°C, which is above average for this time of year. However, in the rest of Scotland and Northern Ireland, it will be much colder, with highs only reaching around 7°C. The Met Office has also issued a yellow weather warning for rain, which will be in effect from midday on Monday until 5am on Tuesday. This warning covers a large area, including parts of Lancashire, Cumbria, and northern England, where heavy rain could potentially cause disruption.
Meteorologist Craig Snell explains that this is due to a weather front that is dividing the country, with milder air in the south and colder air in the north. However, the milder air is expected to hold on a bit longer in the south, despite the cold front's attempt to push it away. This means that regions in the path of the rain, such as southern Scotland, northern England, and most of Wales, will experience heavy and persistent showers, making for a "pretty miserable" start to the day on Tuesday.

On a lighter note, a monkey escaped from a Scottish zoo and is currently on the run. This unusual event comes after the Scottish village of Kinlochewe set a provisional UK record for the warmest temperature in January, reaching a staggering 19.6°C on Sunday. This beats the previous record of 18.3°C set in Inchmarlo and Aboyne in 2003, as well as in Aber in 1958 and 1971. It seems that the weather in the UK is full of surprises, from heavy rain to record-breaking temperatures. Stay tuned for more updates and news stories.
