00:00 Hello there, good afternoon. It's going to be staying cold through the rest of the day

00:04 across the UK with a further risk of outbreaks of heavy rain and some further hill snow.

00:09 We've got low pressure in charge and will be staying with us all the way through the

00:12 weekend as well and a dive of cold air wrapped around that low pressure as well as these

00:17 occluded fronts. Now these occluded fronts is where we're seeing the focus of the heaviest

00:22 rain and that risk of hill snow we have seen through this morning and through the rest

00:26 of the day as well. That's where that focus will be. So those bands will push into more

00:30 northern areas of England and then into southern Scotland later on this afternoon. So above

00:34 around 200 metres is where we've got the greatest risk of seeing some snow falling. So that

00:38 does bring a risk to some sleety accumulations on higher road surfaces. So do take care if

00:44 you're travelling in these areas through this afternoon. Further south it will turn somewhat

00:48 drier but it's still going to be a fairly unsettled afternoon with a risk of quite blustery

00:52 showers that could still fall as snow over the high ground. There's also a risk of hail

00:56 in there as well. Further north across Northern Ireland and many areas of Scotland it should

01:00 stay dry through much of this afternoon but there's a cold northerly wind so it will still

01:05 be feeling cold wherever you are out there this afternoon with a risk of some quite gusty

01:10 winds particularly across the south coast. It will stay fairly unsettled throughout tonight

01:16 as well. This band will push likely into northern areas of Scotland bringing a risk of some

01:21 snow to higher areas overnight tonight. Further south it should be dry through this evening

01:26 but through the early hours of Saturday morning this area of rain will move into the south

01:31 coast and then up towards the Midlands by the start of Saturday. This brings a risk

01:35 of some snow to higher ground mostly but there is a chance of a couple of centimetres to

01:40 lower levels by the start of Saturday. So there will be quite a lot of cloud around

01:45 overnight so frost is going to be limited but it's still going to be quite a cold start

01:48 to the day. There's still a risk of ice on any wet surfaces as well so it's going to

01:52 be a bit of a cold start to the weekend and for many areas of central England and then

01:57 northern areas of England later on in the day it's going to be quite a wet and cloudy

02:02 day and there's further risk of snow over the higher ground here. Elsewhere though it'll

02:07 be fairly cloudy and cold as I said but there'll be a risk of showers and still a chance of

02:12 some drier weather from time to time but we've still got that colder air and many areas will

02:16 be seeing quite a brisk breeze as well so it will feel fairly chilly throughout much

02:21 of Saturday. As we head towards the end of the weekend and into Sunday we will see a

02:26 ridge of higher pressure developing which will bring a drier, brighter and warmer day

02:32 on Sunday. See you later.
