After what feels like weeks and indeed months of wind and rain, there is some good news on the horizon.

Cloudy with outbreaks of rain today, brighter into the afternoon.
Cloudy with outbreaks of rain at times across the Northern Isles during the morning, this clearing to the northwest during the afternoon with some bright or sunny spells developing across Orkney. Maximum temperature 13 °C.
Some late sunshine across Orkney this evening, staying cloudier over Shetland with the odd spot of rain. Becoming mostly dry through the night with some clear spells. Minimum temperature 9 °C.
Mostly dry on Wednesday, perhaps the odd light shower. Bright or sunny spells through the day, particularly during the evening. Maximum temperature 17 °C.
Mainly dry on Thursday with bright spells. Outbreaks of rain at times on Friday, with more persistent rain on Saturday.
Updated:
Early in this period, low pressure is likely to exist to the northwest or north of the UK, allowing areas of cloud and rain to spread across the UK from the west, though some more settled interludes are also likely, especially in the southeast. Breezy at times, with temperatures mainly near or below normal. Remaining changeable thereafter as weather systems to move across the country from the west, with northern and western areas typically wettest and a greater chance of dry conditions prevailing in the southeast. There is, however, a smaller chance for either unsettled weather to be more widely prevalent, or for a more quiescent period to develop across the south. Overall, temperatures will likely be near normal, but may feel cool in the west at times.
Updated:
Through this period, there remains a slightly increased chance of more settled spells of weather developing at times, particularly in the south, and the likelihood of this has been gradually increasing over the past few days. However, there is still a substantial chance of other outcomes too, with more changeable periods also likely. Overall drier than average conditions are more likely than wetter than average, and warmer than average conditions are weakly favoured too.
