Good evening. We had a turbulent day of weather today heal and

thunder as well. Those showers are fading across the southern half of

the country. We have fairly potent rain further north. That will slide

southwards across England and Wales over night. Patchy rain here,

behind it, it turns colder. The potential for a ground frost, frost

on the cars by tomorrow morning. You can see the rain, it does give

a damping to ground for many parts of England and Wales through the

night, holding the temperatures up here. It will be a grey and damp

start. Further north under the clearing skies lighter winds. The

winds will ease. A touch of ground frost for rural parts of Scotland

and Northern Ireland. We will see sunshine here, more than we have

seen for the last couple of days. It will be a damp start in southern

and eastern areas. More sunshine across Scotland and Northern

Ireland, lighter winds, it will feel pleasant in the sunshine, more

like spring. We will see the odd shower for Northern Ireland and

into the north of England. A dryer picture here through Wales and the

South West in the afternoon. Further east a slow start. The

April sunshine will be stronger now it will punch its way through the

clouds, there will be sharp showers around into the afternoon. There

should be fewer big showers than today much they will melt away

quickly tomorrow evening. Tomorrow night it will turn much colder,

even further south. Widespread ground frost in rural parts.

Saturday starts on a lovely note for many. There could be rural fog

around first thing. Late on the weather front will push in. It will

be dry to start the weekend, strong sunshine for many of us before that

rain starts to threatening the north-west of Scotland and Northern

Ireland. That will allow the weather systems to come in off the

Atlantic, squeeze our high pressure out of the way, it looks like the

wetter day of the weekend, Sunday, wetter and windier as the weather

front pushes across Scotland, Northern Ireland, northern England

and western fringes of England and Wales, at the moment a cold and

bright start is prom significanced across southern and eastern areas.
