Today's Forecast |
This afternoon will remain dry with sunny spells. Throughout this evening and overnight it will remain dry but with cloud gradually thickening from the west. RSTs are expected to drop close to or just below freezing leading to a low risk of patchy hoar frost developing in places, although there is currently low confidence in exact minimum temperatures due to uncertainty in cloud detail. Tomorrow morning will be mainly dry and cloudy. |
Outlook for the next four days (forecasts run from midday to midday) | |
Friday | Generally dry and often cloudy, although the odd rain or sleet shower is possible at times. Overnight frost is likely given any cloud breaks |
Saturday |
Another mainly dry 24 hours, but still with a risk of a few rain or sleet showers at times. Staying cold with overnight frost likely. |
Sundayand Monday |
Largely dry on both days but remaining cold with overnight frosts likely. A band of rain is expected to move in through Tuesday morning, eventually introducing milder air. |
