00:00Hello there welcome to your Wednesday evening weather update from the Met
00:04Office. Now through tomorrow we'll see some sunshine after a cold start even
00:09with a risk of ice. In fact there's warnings for ice this evening and
00:14overnight across the north and the west of Northern Ireland, northern parts of
00:17Scotland associated with those showers. This ridge allows things to be fine on
00:21Thursday before more cloud and rain sinks down towards more southern and
00:25eastern areas through the day into Friday. And then Friday will be a rather
00:29cloudy scenario although we'll see the winds pick up on Saturday yet again
00:32more rain arrives from the west and it will gradually move eastwards into
00:38Sunday. For the time being look at this rain here it's been continuing
00:41throughout the day but it is now clearing down towards the low countries
00:44a slow process along that south coast. Cloud then breaks up we'll see a frost
00:50form and extends southwards. Still a keen breeze though across more northern and
00:54western areas and we'll see some showers continue across these parts
00:58wintry over higher ground. Temperatures really taking a tumble in rural spots I
01:02think the lowest temperatures will be around minus three to minus five degrees
01:05Celsius. Watch out for one or two fog patches as well as the winds fall light
01:09particularly across more central parts of the country. Now through tomorrow
01:12morning showers from the word go across more northern and western areas, windward
01:16coast to be honest. The rain becomes confined to Shetland with a driving wind
01:20but notice it's a fine day for most after a cold morning. You'll see some
01:25sunshine cloud just drifting across the sky. Most places dry although the cloud
01:29will thicken across Northern Ireland and Western Scotland later heralding a wet
01:33evening. Before that though temperatures will arrive around five to eight degrees
01:37Celsius feeling quite pleasant in any blue sky and sunshine. Now through Thursday
01:43evening and overnight this band of rain continues its passage eastwards. A frost
01:48first thing across central eastern areas of Scotland Northern Ireland seeing that
01:52rain though frost further east. You can see the rain could be heavy at times
01:55extending towards northern England and Wales. It fizzles out across much of
01:59Scotland. We could see some snow over the Pennines through the early hours of
02:03Friday morning as this rain continues its passage towards East Anglia, central
02:08southern England as well as the southeast clearing the Midlands through
02:11around lunchtime. In its wake perhaps some brighter skies Northern Ireland
02:15North East Scotland but generally speaking there will be a lot of clouds
02:18and cloudy weather will be the name of the game on Saturday as more rain arrives
02:22from the west Saturday night and the winds pick up some strength. That rain
02:26again weakens as it pushes eastwards. More details check out our 10-day trend
02:30this week it's with honour.
