00:00Hello, good afternoon. Well, even though we're still in autumn, it certainly felt like winter
00:05this week with plenty of snow and ice in the forecast, not just for northern areas either.
00:11This morning we've had some snow flurries skirt their way across the southwest as this
00:14area of low pressure slowly sweeps its way towards Europe, bringing some snow across
00:19parts of Devon and Cornwall, where we do have a snow warning issued until early this afternoon.
00:25That's eventually going to clear its way across the south later into this afternoon, but still
00:29plenty of snow showers skirting exposed coasts for northern and northwestern parts of Scotland,
00:34around coasts of Northern Ireland, North West England and Northern Wales too, with plenty
00:39of snow and ice warnings issued from the Met Office, so do stay up to date on our website
00:43for those. Away from the snow showers though, there's plenty of autumnal sunshine. You're
00:48going to have to wrap up warm to enjoy it though. Highs only reaching around 5 degrees
00:52today, so it is going to be another chilly and cold day to come.
00:58As we head into this evening, still those snow and ice warnings issued, and still plenty
01:02of those snow showers feeding into northwestern coasts, particularly across England, Wales,
01:07parts of Scotland too. So still some snow showers on offer as we head into this evening,
01:12and under clear skies it is going to be turning cold with a sharp frost, and still some snow
01:17mainly around high ground, but also could see some snow flurries to lower levels too.
01:21So another cold night on offer, with some frost and some icy stretches expected by the
01:26time we reach tomorrow morning. As for Friday, those snow and ice warnings are still issued,
01:32and we still have a chance of some snow showers fleeting around some exposed coasts, mainly
01:37in northwestern areas, parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, northwestern parts of Northern
01:41England and Northern Wales too. But once again, away from those snow showers, there still
01:45should be plenty of that autumnal sunshine. Once again, it is still going to be feeling
01:49chilly. Highs generally around 5 degrees, slightly higher in the southwest. Now as we
01:56head into the weekend, we are still expecting another unsettled spell of weather. There
02:00is still a risk of snow on the cards, also some heavy rain and some strong winds, and
02:05there are already warnings in force as we head into the weekend. So don't forget to
02:09stay updated on our website, and of course you can stay updated on our social media channels
02:14so that you never miss an update. Bye for now.
