:06:19. > :06:21.Well, it's over to Kirsteen now with the weather outlook

:06:22. > :06:33.A fine end to the day with plenty of sunshine. Under clear skies tonight

:06:34. > :06:36.with light winds if I leave -- a fairly widespread and sharp frost

:06:37. > :06:41.will develop, particularly in rural areas. Temperatures are widely

:06:42. > :06:47.falling below freezing. We expect perhaps as low as -8 in some

:06:48. > :06:53.sheltered rural parts of the Highlands. Thicker cloud working its

:06:54. > :06:59.way into the north-west by the end of the night and the temperatures

:07:00. > :07:04.will return ton recover somewhat. Cold sunshine in the morning. During

:07:05. > :07:10.the day, some high cloud spills in from the west, turning the sunshine

:07:11. > :07:14.hazy across many areas. Thicker cloud in the north-west will produce

:07:15. > :07:21.some light and patchy outbreaks of rain across the Western Isles.

:07:22. > :07:23.Across the rest of the UK, cloudy in the afternoon across Northern

:07:24. > :07:34.Ireland, high pressure in England and Wales, plenty of brightness.

:07:35. > :07:36.Quite a cool feel for most of us. Freshening south to south-westerly

:07:37. > :07:40.winds across the western and Northern Isles. Tomorrow evening,

:07:41. > :07:44.cloudy for most of us and we will see the rain across the Western

:07:45. > :07:50.Isles begin to move further south and east during the night. On

:07:51. > :07:54.Wednesday, a fair amount of cloud, some rain across the south-east in

:07:55. > :07:58.the morning and then light and patchy rain working its way into

:07:59. > :08:02.Western coastal areas. The best of the brightness and sunshine will be

:08:03. > :08:09.across the north-east. It will be milder noticeably than lately,

:08:10. > :08:15.particularly in the sunshine in the north-east, temperatures at around

:08:16. > :08:18.15. Over the next few days, largely dry, some light rain in the West,

:08:19. > :08:25.the best sunshine in the east, much milder.

:08:26. > :08:30.But, from everyone on the late team, goodnight.
