0:04:05 > 0:04:13It isn't unusual for January, but it will be bitter and windy this
0:04:13 > 0:04:16week and also showers which could be wintry for some of us,
0:04:16 > 0:04:18It has been quite breezy today, still blowing
0:04:18 > 0:04:20in the north this evening.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22A complication for this evening and tonight is cloud.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24It will increase, particularly towards the West, bringing showery
0:04:24 > 0:04:29outbreaks which could turn into sleet and snow on the hilltops.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32In these areas where it is cloudy, temperatures stay above freezing
0:04:32 > 0:04:35but there will be areas where clear spells could linger and temperatures
0:04:35 > 0:04:37drop below freezing, bringing frost and icy patches
0:04:37 > 0:04:43and maybe the odd pockets of mist and fog.
0:04:43 > 0:04:51Just a warning and where we have had showers falling on frozen ground.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55It will be a day of bright spells and showers once again.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Showers most likely to be towards the County Down coast
0:04:58 > 0:04:59and the north and west tomorrow.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03In between, dry and brighter weather.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Sunshine and showers for the Republic of Ireland
0:05:05 > 0:05:06and much of Britain.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Towards the coast in the south-west, most of those falling as rain,
0:05:09 > 0:05:13mild in the south, drier towards the east and still some snow
0:05:13 > 0:05:16for the hills of northern England towards the north-west of Scotland
0:05:16 > 0:05:23are maybe the Welsh mountains where it's colder.
0:05:23 > 0:05:31We will see those winds picking up tomorrow afternoon
0:05:31 > 0:05:34and that is as the showers become a bit more widespread as well
0:05:34 > 0:05:36and edging inland.
0:05:36 > 0:05:41It will feel wintry on the hills, highs of 5-6dC and feeling cold
0:05:41 > 0:05:45as the wind picks up.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47For tomorrow night and into Tuesday, low-pressure pulls into
0:05:47 > 0:05:53the North Sea and we get these tightening isobars.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57It will feel bitterly cold and we will get wintry showers
0:05:57 > 0:06:00coming in on the hills, not quite so windy for Wednesday and Thursday.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03After that, we've another weather system moving in which will bring
0:06:03 > 0:06:05wintry showers to low levels through Wednesday
0:06:05 > 0:06:06night into Thursday.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10Do stay tuned to the forecast.
