The north

and south

of the UK taking turns at who has

frosty nights. Southern areas close

to the south coast of England close

to six. Newry in Northern Ireland

three degrees. Tonight we switch

things around, the further north,

the more likely to defrost and ice.

A cold night with rain, sleet, hail

and snow showers. Rain across

England and Wales pushing east,

confined to East Anglia and the

south-east by the end of the night.

Every burst of rain with that,

strong to gale force winds.

Temperatures up five or 6 degrees

into the morning. A real risk of ice

in the rush hour tomorrow morning.
