The chilly temperatures will continue into Monday, before turning milder for the rest of the week.The Met Office forecaster Chris Page said: “It’s really quite struggling today. We are looking at temperatures between 9C to 10C, possibly 11C across the board, with maybe 12C in London, so a cool and chilly-feeling day after a cold start.”
