:00:00. > :00:00.thing, Sunday will be cloudier and milder.
:00:07. > :00:14.Good evening. It was such a mild December, wasn't it, but winter has
:00:15. > :00:19.arrived. Tomorrow morning, again, could be prising the wipers off the
:00:20. > :00:23.frozen windscreen. Yes, it's going to be cold tonight, whether it is
:00:24. > :00:26.liquid,/ or snow, it will freeze solid late at night with
:00:27. > :00:30.temperatures close to or below zero in many places. This was the early
:00:31. > :00:34.snow which pushed across the south-east, a few centimetres over
:00:35. > :00:38.the high ground. Now we concentrate on the showers, which feed in over
:00:39. > :00:48.the north and west of the UK. Some getting into the Midlands, giving a
:00:49. > :00:50.further coding in places. Ice will be widespread, warnings in force.
:00:51. > :00:52.Blizzards raging across Northern Highland Scotland as we head into
:00:53. > :00:55.the night and through the early hours we will see a band of sleet
:00:56. > :00:58.and snow heading down out of Scotland and Eastern counties of
:00:59. > :01:01.England. A narrow band, but inland it could give two or three
:01:02. > :01:05.centimetres of snow, heading all the way down to the London area.
:01:06. > :01:08.Hopefully not causing too many problems as it arrives mid-morning.
:01:09. > :01:11.This could be the scene near you first thing in the morning. Take it
:01:12. > :01:16.steady on the roads and pavements. There will be a lot of ice around.
:01:17. > :01:22.Gayle raging down the North Sea, as you may have heard on the news eight
:01:23. > :01:26.risk of a storm surge and coastal flooding. A blustery, cold day but
:01:27. > :01:29.bright for many others. There will be further wintry showers towards
:01:30. > :01:34.exposed northern and western coastal areas in particular. Some will work
:01:35. > :01:38.inland. A cold feeling day, 3-4 is typical. Lower than that where you
:01:39. > :01:43.have snow on the ground. A hard frost again on Saturday morning. A
:01:44. > :01:48.cold, bright day for many. There will be further wintry showers,
:01:49. > :01:51.particularly near exposed coasts. Something a bit milder pushing in
:01:52. > :01:57.from the West. For many, a chilly day, 4-5. Let's put it in context.
:01:58. > :02:01.Cast your minds back 30 years ago today, these were the highs across
:02:02. > :02:05.the UK is. -8 in some places and blizzards raised across parts of
:02:06. > :02:12.East Anglia and the south-east, causing paralysis. This cold snap
:02:13. > :02:15.will not be anything like as bad. But another chilly day across
:02:16. > :02:20.eastern areas on Sunday. Fronts trying to push on from the West.
:02:21. > :02:23.It's going to be a slow process. They will introduce milder air, but
:02:24. > :02:28.also more cloud, without breaks of rain which will probably stall
:02:29. > :02:29.across eastern areas. A pretty raw data come on Sunday, something
