WEATHER: Rest of the weekend
INTO TONIGHT
Clear skies today bring an early frost this evening. Lows down to -2C. Replaced by an area of rain from the northwest after midnight.
This could bring a temporary covering of snow for the hills as it meets the cold air. As the rain hits subzero surfaces ice could be a problem for the middle part of the night. By dawn milder and cloudier weather wins with a strong westerly breeze.
SUNDAY
Less cold but more cloud. Outbreaks of rain during the morning should ease, leaving a mostly cloudy, damp day with occasional sunny spells. Temperatures back up to 8/9C and remaining breezy.
OUTLOOK
Colder, showery and windy.
The winds veer to the north by midweek, increasing the risk of any showers turning wintry. A return to overnight frosts and the risk of ice. Winds strong to gale force at times and cold - big wind chill factor.
