00:00Hello and a very good morning to you on this frosty Thursday morning with the

00:04risk of ice and further snow showers. Warnings are in force. Northern Scotland,

00:10the far north of Northern Ireland and some snow showers have been running down

00:14towards Wales. North West England. Now through the day it remains cold wherever

00:18you are. Still a strong wind along this eastern side up towards the Northern

00:22Isles and those snow showers keep on falling across northern parts of

00:26Scotland. So further accumulations likely here as we head through Thursday

00:30and into Thursday evening. Elsewhere the winds fall a little lighter. So first

00:34thing this morning if you are stepping out yes you can see where most of these

00:38snow showers are particularly towards the North Highlands of Scotland running

00:42down the western side Northern Ireland. Isle of Man seeing some wintry showers

00:46and they're moving in across Liverpool Bay, Cheshire, the far south of Lancashire,

00:51the western side of Wales as well. Now towards the southeast an overhang of

00:56cloud but we've lost that rain and snow and those winds remain strong along this

01:00east coast here as we head through this morning into the afternoon. Any freezing

01:04fog patches only slowly lifting through the day as well. However for most it's a

01:10dry morning. It's very cold outside after a severe frost overnight and there will

01:15be some sunshine around. Always more clouds across North West England as well

01:19as Wales with those showers running in. Some dry skies across central and

01:23southern parts of Northern Ireland with some sunshine. Showers continue along

01:26the coastline and these showers will be frequent across Caithness, Sutherland,

01:30Aberdeenshire where that morning remains in force throughout the day.

01:34Temperatures then struggling. It's a cold day 2 to 4 degrees Celsius sub-zero

01:39where you see lying snow. Now through this evening and overnight temperatures

01:43will fall even lower. There'll be clear skies across many areas. These showers

01:48across the north, snow showers at that, will tend to fade away away from the

01:52northern isles overnight and it's really the lighter wind inland, some

01:56clearer skies where we could see temperatures across the snowfields of

02:00Scotland down towards the far north of England around minus 14 to minus 16

02:04degrees Celsius. Townsend City is then sub-zero as well. However into Friday

02:09morning, yes it will be a frosty start to the day. Still one or two mist and fog

02:13patches but more cloud arrives towards the southwest bringing with it some

02:17outbreaks of rain. As that rain encounters the cold air there's a chance

02:21as it weakens we could see some sleet and snow but it is a weak feature just

02:26hovering across these parts not making many inroads eastwards or northwards. So

02:31your outlook as we head through Saturday, a lot of clouds towards the west, some

02:35brighter skies further east after yet again a very cold day and there could be

02:40a wintry mix where you see any rain. I'll see you later.
