Sunday marks the first day of spring and temperatures are starting to warm up in Leeds.

After torrential downpours and major storms caused flooding last month, March has welcomed some fine weather - and more is on the way.

Forecasters predict a day of downpours, but the rest of the week is expected to be fine and bright.

Here's the full Met Office forecast for the week ahead.
