Showers will mostly be confined to the north UK today, and much of the country can expect dry conditions for fireworks this evening. The short term outlook is more of the same, and it will continue to feel quite cold. Interesting developments are possible next week, with low pressure pushing up from the southwest and Arctic air moving down from the north.
