00:00Hello there, welcome to your Tuesday evening weather update from the Met

00:04Office. It's bitterly cold through the next few days with some widespread and

00:08hard frosts, also the risk of snow showers and ice. Warnings are in force

00:13this evening and overnight. Northern Ireland, northern parts of Scotland,

00:16southeast Scotland, the east coast of England as well as Wales. Further

00:20accumulations are likely with the risk of ice and wherever you are it's very

00:24cold as we start the day on Wednesday. Further snow showers likely through

00:28into Thursday as this system here just grazes the far south and southwest of

00:32England. We could see some snow on its northern edge as the rain clears down

00:37towards the southeast. Now Thursday into Friday always the chance of some

00:41wintry showers but inland yet again we'll see some sunshine after very cold

00:46air by night and a widespread frost. And then all change as we head into the

00:51weekend, the weather turns very lively. For the time being if you are stepping

00:54out or driving this evening, watch out for these frequent snow showers.

00:58Further accumulations as I said and also the risk of ice. They're running

01:01down the east coast, a relentless wind here. Inland temperatures falling well

01:06below freezing very early on through the evening. Snow showers just clipping the

01:10far north of Northern Ireland as well and a mix of clouds and a little showery

01:15rain and sleet towards the far south which will clear. And then much of the

01:20country will see starry skies overnight. The air is crystal clear and temperatures

01:25will fall very quickly. However watch out for the snow and ice across central

01:30and northern areas of Scotland. And down this east coast here you can see a mix of

01:34rain, sleet, snow and hail just clipping the eastern side. Showers will penetrate

01:39quite far inland for Northern Ireland moving in across Scotland as well as

01:43Wales. And for Scotland yes that's where we'll see the highest accumulations into

01:48the early hours of Wednesday morning. As temperatures dip down to minus 11 minus

01:5310 degrees Celsius across the far north in Shelter for the central about minus

01:576 degrees Celsius. Further south across England and Wales in the countryside yes

02:01well below freezing for this time of year. It is very cold indeed. So that

02:06leads into a bright start tomorrow morning for many areas but bitter

02:10outside. Wrap up warm and watch out for ice. Now through the day these snow

02:15showers will continue. Again it's where you're exposed to the wind particularly

02:20along the coast but they will move inland as well. This feature moves down

02:24across Lincolnshire as well as East Anglia through the latter part of

02:28tomorrow. So expect some rain, sleet and snow as we head through into the

02:32afternoon there. And snow showers continuing across Northern Ireland

02:35running down towards the Irish Sea and Wales. Temperatures then will sub

02:40zero where you see that snow across Scotland. Highest temperatures possibly

02:45around four or five degrees Celsius but feeling cold in the wind towards more

02:48northern and eastern areas. Now through Wednesday evening and overnight subtle

02:52changes in our weather. The winds will be a bit lighter inland so temperatures

02:56could be a bit lower particularly where you've seen snow. Snow showers continue

03:00across this northwestern side down towards Northern Ireland and then later

03:03on thickening cloud brings outbreaks of rain clipping the far southwest of

03:07Wales possibly. Some snow over the moors possible as well as the rain gradually

03:12slides down towards the southeast as we head through the latter part of the day.

03:16Here's Friday for you. A ridge of high pressure, a cold start today. Bitter

03:21again in the north with the risk of ice as well as snow. And then this system

03:26winds up for the weekend. Gales, snow on its northern edge and then outbreaks of

03:32rain track across the country. So wherever you are take note that the

03:35weather is changing yet again into the weekend. Before that though stay safe,

03:39stay warm and stay up to date with all the warnings. See you later.
