potentially leading us into a chilly start to the weekend. Time for the

national weather prospects if you are on the move.

Good evening, a lot going on with the weather in the next few days,

numerous weather warnings in for so buried in mind if you have travel

plans. Lots of isobars on the chart overnight which means it will be

windy for all. The strongest winds in Scotland, lots of wintry showers

with snow getting down to increasingly low levels and some

wintry showers in Northern Ireland and northern England. A cold night

for Northern England, particularly in more rural spots, frosty and I

see for some and some of the snow really blowing around over higher

ground in Scotland. Strong wind and further snow to take us into

tomorrow. It may well make for some tricky travelling conditions. The

forecast for tomorrow in the southern half of the UK's quite

tricky. We have got mild air bumping into colder air. The boundary

between the two, it will be an ugly mix of rain, sleet and snow

developing. Mild air comes in behind the weather front but the rain ahead

of that will be mixing with the cold air. Details are a bit elusive even

at this stage but it looks like snow will develop over the higher ground

of Wales and may be down towards the higher ground in the south and west.

In the afternoon and evening, the whole area of rain, sleet and snow

moves ever eastwards and some looks like it will get down to lower

levels. Further north, a bit more straightforward, in the cold air,

showers across Scotland mostly of snow but not too many for the

eastern side and a mixture of rain, sleet and snow in Northern Ireland

and England, two, but some spells or sunshine as well but a significant

wind-chill. Two or three degrees of the phenomenon -- thermometer but

factoring in a wind, it will feel like -2 or -3 so significant. In the

evening, that area of rain, sleet and snow crosses East Anglia and the

south-eastward could leave recovering even at lower levels and

behind it, it turns very frosty and icy and another area of persistent

rain, sleet and snow heading south on a fairly stiff wind. That will

get down towards the Midlands by Dawn on Friday. By which stage, the

frost will be quite widespread and not just frosty, it could well be

quite icy for some. Potentially quite a slippery start to Friday

morning. That area of rain, sleet and snow moves across the south-east

and east Anglia fairly quickly through the morning and is gone by

late morning. A strong wind down the North Sea coast will generate large

waves and further wintry showers around the east Coast, along the

north coast and maybe western coastal areas as well. Inland,

mostly dry with sunshine but cold, five or 6 degrees at the very best

but feeling
