is going to be following across east anglia and southeast england, an odd patch elsewhere. across scotland, northern ireland and parts of northwest england, quite a widespread frost. the lowest temperatures down to “4 or —5 in the highlands of scotland, and although there will be quite a bit of cloud at times in england, i think for the most part, as i go to the weekend, we should see the weather tending to brighten up with a bit of sunshine around. cold and frosty start, then, to the day across the northwest of the country, but across eastern areas underneath this area of cloud, 5—6 degrees with drizzle on and off for much of the day. eventually, the front starts to push a little bit further westwards, so we will probably see some cloud thickening across the midlands and central southern england, perhaps with an odd patch of rain here. sunshine across the north and west of the uk with temperatures around 8—10 degrees in the warmest spots. now, for sunday, bit of patchy rain across the south—west initially. this cloud flowing in from the north sea could continue to be thick enough for an occasional patch of light rain or drizzle.
