SUNNY spells this morning with rain to follow later on is the outlook for Bolton today.

After a gloomy start to the day, exacerbated by cloud cover and the clocks having jumped forward over the weekend, sunshine should be with us until about 1 or 2pm.

Then rain, which will become increasingly heavy into the evening, is set to arrive.

Temperatures will reach highs of eight degrees celsius and lows of five, while conditions will be breezy at times, with stronger gusts of up to 22mph to arrive by tonight, according to the Met Office.
