00:00Welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office.

00:03The weather patterns remain pretty static at the moment,

00:05which means Wednesday's weather will be pretty

00:08similar to Tuesday's weather.

00:10Overnight, with clear skies, a hard frost

00:12across Scotland and Northern Ireland.

00:13But also here, some dense patches

00:15of fog, which are going to stick around for much of Wednesday,

00:18especially in and around the Glasgow area

00:21and across western parts of Northern Ireland.

00:23But a patchy rain across the far north of Scotland

00:25through Shetland, and at times in Orkney,

00:27and some showers just keeping going

00:30across parts of southeast England.

00:31So a bit of a damp night here.

00:32But for a good chunk of England or Wales,

00:34it's just dry and cloudy.

00:35And that cloud will help to keep the temperatures up

00:37above freezing.

00:38But for Scotland and Northern Ireland, well below.

00:42Minus 2, minus 3, minus 4.

00:43Even in urban areas, some rural spots

00:46could get down to minus double digits.

00:47Notice not as cold across the far north

00:49because of that thicker cloud and a little bit of rain.

00:52That'll continue across into Shetland through the morning,

00:55as will these showers across the southeast.

00:57Nothing too heavy, but some of them

00:59just moving along the south coast of England.

01:01So don't be caught out by the odd shower

01:03coming into parts of Devon, Cornwall, Dorset

01:06through the afternoon.

01:07And still a brisk and fairly chilly wind here.

01:10The rest of England or Wales, the wind's

01:11actually a bit lighter compared to Tuesday.

01:14And again, across Scotland and Northern Ireland,

01:16we've got light winds.

01:17Many places having quite a bit of sunshine.

01:19But that fog, where it forms, could stick.

01:23Again, particularly in and around the Glasgow area

01:25in the west of Northern Ireland.

01:26Where the fog sticks all day, temperatures

01:28are not going to get above freezing.

01:30In the sunshine, we should get to 4 or 5 Celsius.

01:33Further south, 6 or 7 is what it'll read on the thermometer.

01:36But not feeling very mild at all because it

01:39is going to be fairly gloomy, in particular that breeze

01:42along the south coast.

01:43That will continue to ease down a bit on Wednesday night.

01:46The fog will thicken up again across parts

01:48of southwest Scotland and Northern Ireland.

01:51So again, something to be aware of.

01:52Poor visibility as we head through Wednesday night

01:55into Thursday.

01:55The rain should have edged away from Shetland,

01:58so largely dry here.

01:59But notice thickening cloud and rain and drizzle

02:02just by this stage coming into parts of eastern England.

02:05That's going to make for quite a dank and dreary

02:07old day on Thursday.

02:09Rain and drizzle, nothing too heavy, but not

02:11feeling very pleasant as the breeze, again,

02:14is noticeable across the southeast.

02:15That's going to feel quite cold with the mostly gloomy skies

02:19here too.

02:19Again, it'll be Scotland, Northern Ireland

02:21that have some of the brightest weather,

02:22some good spirals of sunshine.

02:24But only if the fog clears away.

02:27And even though we'll see some sunshine,

02:29the winds will remain light here.

02:31Temperatures are, again, going to struggle somewhat

02:34to get much above 3 or 4 Celsius at best.

02:37Further south, temperatures may be a degree or so higher.

02:39But with thicker cloud, gloomy conditions, rain and drizzle,

02:43again, it is going to feel pretty cool, I suspect,

02:46for the time of year.

02:47We are finally going to see some shifts in our weather pattern.

02:50The high pressure that's dominating at the moment,

02:52bringing the largely dry weather,

02:55shimmies away to the east as we head towards the weekend.

02:58Weather fronts try and topple in, fairly weak initially.

03:00But these ones could have a bit more

03:02about them bringing some wet and windy conditions

03:04to the far northwest into the weekend.

03:06But I suspect much of the south will stay dry.

03:08And it may well brighten up a touch for the weekend as well.

03:11More details on all of that in our deep dive video.

03:15You can catch that on YouTube.
