After a mild weekend where temperatures hit the mid teens, it's set to get colder in Greater Manchester over the next few days.

Temperatures are expected to plunge to just above freezing on Monday night, the Met Office has said. And there's a chance of light rain during the day.

And tonight it will be 'wet and windy' in the north-west with heavy rain forecast from around 8pm. "We will have various bands of rain coming in from the west, which could be heavy at times, and also very breezy across the whole country," Met Office spokesperson Becky Mitchell said. "The rain will be heavy in places, but we’re not expecting any large amounts to cause any significant issues.

Monday we have got some showery outbreaks of rain, and northerly wind. “Tuesday we will have a band of rain gradually moving in from the west.
