Headline:

Chilly with scattered showers mixed with a few sunny spells.

Today:

A cold, frosty morning, with a few sunny spells. Turning more widely cloudy into the afternoon as a few isolated showers arrive from the northeast, these perhaps wintry at times. Light winds, but feeling chilly. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Tonight:

Early evening showers soon fade away, leaving a dry and settled evening. Feeling chilly with clear skies allowing frost and patchy ice to form in places. Light winds. Minimum temperature -2 °C.

Friday:

Another chilly but bright morning with plenty of sunny spells. A few scattered showers arrive from the northeast later, though these more infrequent than recent days. Winds remaining light. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Drier and more settled over the weekend, with some sunny spells. Still rather chilly with overnight frosts, but feeling pleasant in afternoon sunshine. Cloudier with scattered showers on Monday.

The dominant area of high pressure will gradually drift away to the east of the UK through the early part of next week. So initially there should be a good deal of dry weather with sunny spells by day, but still some chilly nights with frost in places. The odd fog patch is possible in the north, and a brisk breeze across the south will make it feel chilly here when out of the sun. Beyond that we will see a gradual transition to less settled conditions. So rain or showers are expected at times, mostly focussed across the south at first, then more widely later. With winds predominantly coming from the south next week it will also become much milder, possibly warm in places.

Confidence is low, but through the end of March changeable weather patterns are most likely. This means periods of unsettled, wet and windy weather interspersed with some drier and brighter spells. Into early April, there may be a transition to more frequent drier and more settled spells. Temperatures will probably be above average overall.
