00:00Hello there, welcome to your weather update from the Met Office. High pressure firmly

00:04in charge across England and Wales over the next few days, with Scotland sitting towards

00:08the north of this high pressure system, which means a stronger wind delivering more clouds

00:13and perhaps some slightly less cold air. But it's going to be a severe frost across many

00:17areas, temperatures across England and Wales dipping down to around minus four degrees

00:20Celsius in places even lower in the countryside. And watch out for some patchy fog as well.

00:25A bit of a frost to start the day for eastern parts of Scotland. It'll be pockets of frost

00:29here rather than the widespread effect we're seeing across England and Wales. And milder

00:33conditions just coming in with a keen breeze across the north and the west of Scotland.

00:37More clouds for Northern Ireland, but you can see where the brightest weather will be.

00:40Eastern counties, the midlands, central southern England, eastern Scotland from time to time.

00:44Temperatures then typically coming in around seven, eight, nine degrees Celsius, mildest

00:48towards the northwest setting the scene for the weekend. And again, a further showery

00:52burst of rain can't be ruled out across the north and the west of Scotland into the weekend,

00:56again with that brisk breeze. And then that cloud slowly lowers even further with more

01:00in the way of rain and drizzle as we head through Saturday across this part of the country.

01:05Elsewhere, cloudier skies on Saturday, a chilly start, a patchy frost, not a lot of change.

01:11There will be some broken clouds allowing some brighter skies from time to time, but

01:15always the strongest winds will be across the far northwest of Scotland and the chance

01:20of some rain and drizzle, particularly over the western hills and mountains. Wherever

01:24you are, whatever you're doing, take care and you can always join us on social media
