:06:32. > :06:41.At the moment, it is largelx clear spells. There is a chance of 12

:06:42. > :06:46.shivers through the night, but mostly staying dry. The bredze

:06:47. > :06:50.coming in from the north`west, quite actual direction, and that will mean

:06:51. > :06:55.it is fuel in court tomorrow morning. Tomorrow should be a great

:06:56. > :06:59.day. That is a chance of an ace of an isolated shower, but I think most

:07:00. > :07:05.of us should avoid them. Temperatures getting up to 07 or 18

:07:06. > :07:21.Celsius. Not a warm day and that cool breeze will still be boring. ``

:08:07. > :08:09.brisk breeze dies down. The showers disappear and the temperatures

:08:10. > :08:16.tumble. Towns and cities nine or ten. In rural areas widely down to

:08:17. > :08:21.four or five degrees and some places just two or three above freezing. A
