After some very temperamental weather this weekend, which put a stop to several events in Dorset, what's the weather looking like for the week ahead?
Today
Although it was already windy on Sunday, the Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for wind valid from 6am until 9pm today.
It is expected to become very gusty in Bournemouth, Poole and the rest of Dorset, with a risk of gales over exposed coasts and hills.
The Chief Forecaster said: "Inland gusts of 40-45 mph are possible, whilst gusts may exceed 50 mph along the north coasts of Cornwall, Devon and Somerset, and also Bristol Channel coasts of south Wales.
"There is some uncertainty over the peak wind strength and also the extent of the strong winds, but given a greater number of people engaged in outdoor activities at this time of year there is a medium likelihood of some minor disruption, with driving conditions perhaps difficult for towing vehicles."
Temperature-wise, there will be highs of 18C.
Tomorrow
It will still be fairly windy going into Tuesday but there will be sunny spells and only a slight chance of showers. Highs of 17C.
Wednesday onward
It's set to be brighter and drier on Wednesday, although there is a low risk of outbreaks of rain. Thursday's looking fine too with possible highs of 19C.
