Clouds should start to clear at about midday today to make way for clear and dry skies.
But the sunny intervals will not last for long with patches of rain expected in the early evening and overnight.
Going into the weekend the south east will remain covered in cloud and the MET Office is warning of heavy rain and even thundery showers.
Temperatures will reach a maximum of 21C.
