wales and northern ireland are still deciding. our health correspondent, sophie hutchinson, reports. millions of us are already choosing to wear face coverings in the uk, both inside and out. they are mandatory on public transport in most places, but now england is set to catch up with scotland and a host of other countries with the new rules to keep people safe in shops. sadly, sales assistants, cashiers, and security guards have suffered disproportionately in this crisis. the death rate of sales and retail assistants is 75% higher amongst men, and 60% higher amongst women, than in the general population. so, as we restore shopping, so we must keep our shopkeepers safe. so, what are the rules for face coverings in england? well, from the 24th ofjuly, all adults and children aged 11 and over must wear face coverings in shops. but there are exemptions for younger children, and people working in shops, and there will be fines of up to £100 for those who fail to comply. but if england is anything like scotland, then there won't be a

only isolated showers for north west england and northern ireland. further south in wales, midlands, east anglia and southern counties of england, there is sunshine. 23 in london. feeling warm in that sunshine. further north a little bit disappointing for the time of year. overnight tonight showers continue in scotland, but otherwise it is a dry night. once again it will be quite a chilly night with temperatures getting down to single figures in the countryside. a cool start to the day on tuesday. plenty of sunshine in the morning, fair whether cloud will bubble up in england, wales and northern ireland. in scotland things cloud up further as we head into the afternoon and eventually we see outbreaks of rain starting to make inroads from a weather system pushing in off the atlantic. temperatures still disappointing in the north and further south, the low 20s with light winds. towards the middle part of the week we will see this area of low pressure spinning off the atla ntic low pressure spinning off the atlantic and that will bring rain tuesday nigh

ireland into northern england and southern scotland. cloudy across east anglia and the south—east so cool as a consequence. for scotland and northern ireland i'm hopeful things will brighten up a little bit as we head towards the end of the day. as we move out of thursday into friday this big area of high pressure centred across the azores is going to try to bulge its way in our direction. it will settle things down. friday is our window of fine weather in most places, certainly more sunshine than we have had across the northern part of the uk although cloud will roll into northern ireland later on. a few showers towards the south but that is where we will have the warmer weather with highs of 24 degrees. 19 degrees in glasgow. remember that window were fine weather, well it closes as we head into the weekend. low pressure pushing in from the atlantic. that will bring showers or longer spells of rain. the potential for some heavy thundery downpours towards the south. sunday should be a bit drier and brighterfor most of us. this is bbc

ireland and western scotla nd northern ireland and western scotland where it may pep up for a time through this evening and certainly as it crosses towards the north isles but gradually as it seeks southwards, it will be quite rain and drizzle and clearly cloudier and therefore as a result it will not be as chilly as it was last night. we could see mist and fog around with clear skies first thing if you're up early enough. then decent spells of sunshine first thing but for many much cloudier with outbreaks of rain. it will not bea with outbreaks of rain. it will not be a wash—out, i think we will see a few millimetres here and there, heavier pulses potentially over the hills and that will work southwards. scotla nd hills and that will work southwards. scotland and northern ireland would dry and brighten up with some sunshine into the afternoon and temperatures will respond into the high teens here, go 205 and the south. where they should be for the time of year. that is because again the high pressure close by pushing those weather systems out but for a few days they are going to come in

levels of the virus in northern ireland have dropped over the last few weeks. over the last week or so, for example, there has been less than five new cases a day on average and many days now thankfully no deaths due to covid—19 are being reported. but the message is that it doesn't mean the virus have gone away and as more of the economy opens up, it is important that people stick to the rules to bank the progress that northern ireland has made in the fight against the coronavirus. that is the picture from belfast, let's hear from wales and my colleague, tomos morgan, is on barry island. thank you, chris, as you say, we are ona thank you, chris, as you say, we are on a windy barry island today where, for eight weeks during the lockdown, this place was actually shot to everyone. it reopened about three weeks ago for locals as wales had eight stay local rule, which meant everyone had to stay within five miles of their home. —— they had a. today, the welsh government will announce the end of the stay local rule and from monday, people can travel across wale
