Today will be cold, dull and breezy. Starting out largely dry, however patchy rain and drizzle will occur too - just small amounts generally with many areas dry. Highest temperatures of 4 to 7 degrees with an added wind chill factor, owing to a rather brisk east to northeast wind.
Cold tonight with frost and ice setting in where skies clear. While there will be a lot of dry weather, patchy outbreaks of rain and drizzle will occur with the odd hail or sleet shower too. Lowest temperatures of -1 to +3 degrees in a mostly light northeasterly breeze.
