00:00Hello, thanks for joining me for your latest weather update from the Met Office, another

00:05cold one tonight with more warnings in place for snow and ice across northern and western

00:11Scotland along with Northern Ireland. The snow showers continuing to feed in here through

00:15the night, a further few centimetres topping up what we've already seen. We've seen through

00:20the day some snow showers over northwest England and north Wales, they are now fading. For

00:25most of England and Wales a dry night, a clear night with a hard frost as the winds

00:30continue to ease down. Those lighter winds could also allow some fog patches to form

00:34parts of northwest England and the Midlands along with Northern Ireland. It could be quite

00:38dense in some spots in the morning as well. Temperatures are going to really drop away

00:43through the night, if anything colder than Tuesday morning. Temperatures down to minus

00:482, minus 3 pretty extensively across towns and cities, minus double digits in the countryside

00:54over northern England and parts of central and southern Scotland too. Still quite windy

00:59across the far northeast, that wind has been perishing through the course of Tuesday. Not

01:03quite so cold in the far southwest, a little bit more cloud edging in here that will help

01:08to keep the temperatures up perhaps across the isles of Scilly and Cornwall. But certainly

01:13cold for many and we do have that warning in place for snow and ice across northern

01:17and western Scotland and Northern Ireland through Wednesday morning as the snow showers

01:22continue to come in. It could be very slippery on the roads first thing in the morning. Then

01:27as we go through the day as mist and fog should clear for many, it's dry, it's bright, there

01:31will be some sunshine. The snow and sleet showers easing for Northern Ireland but will

01:36continue to feed some in across northern Scotland throughout the day. But for a good chunk of

01:41the country it's dry but notice in the south, clouds slowly increasing, sunshine turning

01:46hazy over the Midlands, Wales and East Anglia and the clouds thick enough in the far south

01:51for some wet weather. Temperatures are going to struggle again. Some places, Shelter Glen

01:57to Scotland for example, are likely to stay below freezing all day. Generally with a bit

02:02of sunshine creeping up to 3 or 4 degrees Celsius, perhaps getting a little milder in

02:07the far southwest but it all depends on how far north this wet weather comes. And that's

02:13still giving us a few headaches at the moment. Still some uncertainty about how much snow

02:16we're going to see but as the wet weather comes in through the morning, we are likely

02:20to see some snow over Dartmoor and then it's just a question of how far north it gets and

02:26how it interacts with the winds. Winds coming in from the sea make a big difference compared

02:31to winds coming in across the land. So really on a knife edge across these southern counties.

02:37Most likely we're going to see rain but there is still the decent chance that we could see

02:41some snow in places across the south. It's not a guarantee but in this yellow warning

02:47area there is the possibility of some disruption. Won't be everywhere that sees the snow but

02:52where we do see it, it could cause a few issues during the course of Wednesday. Something

02:56we're keeping a very close eye on at the moment. That wintry mix of rain, sleet and snow should

03:01then pull away during Wednesday evening time but could still be around certainly through

03:07the rush hour period. Then we're still feeding in showers and the northerly wind over the

03:11north of Northern Ireland and Northern Scotland. So again potentially quite icy here on Wednesday

03:16night and into Thursday and for most places again clear skies, light winds, a hard frost.

03:23Again negative double figures across parts of Scotland, Northern England in the countryside

03:26and well if anything could be colder still Thursday morning compared to Wednesday morning.

03:31Could get down to minus teens across parts of Scotland. So again a frosty start, an icy

03:37start for some. Any of that leftover rain and sleet clearing away from Kent pretty sharply

03:43in the morning. Again could be some mist and fog around but for most places dry and

03:47fine with good spells of sunshine. Temperatures again are going to struggle some places not

03:53getting much of a freezing particularly if any mist and fog sticks around but generally

03:56getting up to 2 or 3 degrees across the north, 5 or 6 Celsius across the south. It looks

04:02like turning a little milder as we head into the weekend but certainly further wintry weather

04:07to come over the next 24 to 48 hours. Keep up to date with those weather warnings on
