as well. The outlook, it shows you it will get cooler as we had through

the it will get cooler as we had through

the weekend but brighter, although gardeners beware, night-time frosts.

It was a day of contrasts across the UK today, rain coming in from the

West but in the south-east, like winds and sunshine, up to 20

degrees. Contrast that with six degrees in the East of Scotland. In

between we've seen some thunderstorms and more general

showers coming in to the western side of the UK. Northern Ireland,

Wales and the south-west. The best chance of staying dry is across

Lincolnshire and East Anglia. A lot of cloud around generally

overnight, some patches of mist and maybe a few patches of fog as well.

The lowest temperatures will be in the far north of the UK, but the

Northern Isles will also see the best of the weather through the

morning. In the east, cloudy, wet and windy, cold, too. Some of the

rain gets towards Glasgow. Into double figures for Northern Ireland

but a fair bit of cloud and rain. Across northern England, some fog

over the hills and quite wet weather coming into the north-east. A lot of

cloud through the morning in the south-east, maybe misty over the

hills. Not much rain but there will be some. The main focus for the rain

is towards the south-west. As we get into the afternoon, those showers

will turn heavier. There will be some rumbles of thunder to go with

it. But there will also be some spells of sunshine. The sunshine in

the London area, temperatures of 16 or 17 degrees. But not so in the

north-east of England, and much colder day than it was today.

Brighter weather in the far north of Scotland, and that will be drifting

its way south through the day on Friday. But with that brighter

weather come some colder air. A bit of a change in the feel of things

towards Friday, but it will be a decent day. It will be a decent day

the most of us, but it turns cold on Friday night. By dawn on Saturday we

are hovering around freezing. Quite widespread frost to start the

weekend, but it looks like a pretty decent day with high pressure firmly

in charge. Most places will be dry and bright with a variable amount of

cloud. On Saturday into Sunday, the weather front will drift across the

north bringing outbreaks of rain. Further south, high pressure brings

pretty decent weather. It will be quite cold through the night and in

the mornings, but looking pretty good for the most part. However,
