Hats at the ready - one of Bridport's most popular events is taking place this weekend. You've got your hat sorted, but will you need an umbrella?

Forecasters at the Met Office are promising a dry day with sun and clouds today, Saturday, especially at 1pm for that all important Mass Hatted Photo in Bucky Doo Square.

Temperatures will be up to 17 degrees Celsius.

Events are still going on tomorrow, Sunday, as part of the festival, but the forecast is looking less promising, with heavy rain forecast throughout the morning and afternoon.
