Tonight further outbreaks of rain push across Northern Ireland and Scotland. Elsewhere it will be dry and under clear skies quite a widespread ground frost forms in southern and central Britain.
Tomorrow wet weather continues in the north west of the UK. The heaviest rain is likely to be in western Scotland with areas to the east of high ground remaining mostly dry. Southern and central regions have a fine day and after a cold start it should feel pleasantly warm during the afternoon.

Through Sunday outbreaks of rain spread southeastwards into northern and central areas. Behind them it turns colder and showery. Southern counties stay dry and bright.
On Monday week a band of patchy rain clears southwards and cooler air follows on from the northwest. During the rest of the week high pressure is expected to be centred close to, or just to the west of the UK. That leads to settled weather and an increasing risk of frost and fog.

During the next couple of weeks we'll be working hard to migrate our website and services to cloud based servers. Very appropriately for a weather based business you may say! The transition means big changes behind the scenes and they could could lead to some service disruption and snagging problems. Once the move is complete we'll have a much flexible platform that makes it easier to expand and provide new services in the future.
