Alternating showers and sun, driest west Scotland and Ireland

Good morning,

The northerly breeze continues today bringing cold, though relatively dry air, to the British Isles. Most places feeling a chilly breeze, especially along coasts. Strongest winds expected on the north Ireland coast and southeast Scotland/northeast England. Gentlest winds in southeast England.

Most of England and Wales will see patchy brief wintery showers during daylight with sunshine between. North and east Scotland will similarly see showery spells. Mostly dry in western Scotland and Ireland, with alternating cloud and sun here. Most will see high temperatures of 6 or 7C, though some areas with more persistent sun may warm a touch more.

Little change into the night - brief light showers approach the north and east coasts of Britain with a stray shower pushing inland. Plenty of breaks in cloud will allow frosts to build in most places. Ireland remaining mostly dry.

Enjoy your day and catch some sun if you can!
-Dan
