Northern Ireland looks to enjoy lots of dry weather as we enter the new working week. There'll also be plenty of cloud around too over the next few days, bringing the odd spot of drizzle.
Maximum temperatures will be slightly below average for the time of year and some areas stuck under the clouds will feel colder than they really are, according to forecasters.
Little is expected to change over the next two to five days, the Met Office says.

Met Office meteorologist Greg Dewhurst said: “A lot of cloud around, generally an easterly breeze keeping most weather fronts at bay – so staying largely dry – but the clouds thick enough in places for some patchy light rain at times, maybe a little bit of sleet over higher ground.”
Here's what to expect for the coming week:
This Evening and Tonight:
It will be dry and mostly cloudy overnight. There may be a touch of frost under any clearer skies in the west. Light and variable winds. Minimum temperature 1°C.
Monday:
Mainly dry, rather cloudy day with just a few sunny interludes, these mainly in the west. A few light showers possible later in day over parts of Antrim and County Down. Maximum temperature 6 °C.
Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:
A mainly dry and cold few days with the clouds breaking at times to give some sunshine. Brisk southeast winds.
UK long range weather forecast: Friday 14 February - Sunday 23 February
East or southeasterly winds are likely at the start of this period. This maintains below average temperatures and often cloudy conditions. There is a chance of colder conditions developing which would see an increase in wintry showers, especially in eastern and northeastern parts of the country.
Meanwhile, Atlantic frontal zones, bringing milder conditions and rain, will attempt to move in from the west or southwest. Early in this period these look likely to have limited influence over the UK though should they push further northeastwards this would increase the chance of snow for some areas.
The balance between colder easterly winds and milder, wetter southwesterly winds remains unclear during mid-February though towards the end of this period, less cold conditions become more likely.
