00:00 Hello, good morning. Another cold and for some of us a snowy day ahead. There's the
00:05 potential for some heavy persistent snow to affect some northern areas, particularly parts
00:09 of Scotland as we go through today. But some of that heavy snow could also impact parts
00:13 of Northern Ireland into Northern England for a time too. There is some uncertainty
00:17 as to exactly when and where we're going to see the heaviest snow, but there's the potential
00:22 for even some lower levels to see in excess of 10 centimetres and 20 centimetres over
00:27 higher ground, so some significant disruption is quite likely. Further south across many
00:32 parts of England and Wales, it's actually looking like another largely fine day. Again,
00:36 plenty of winter sunshine around, but it is still going to feel cold. Temperatures may
00:41 be up a degree or so compared to yesterday with highs of around 5, possibly 6 Celsius,
00:46 but still a chilly feel to things. And further north, with all that snowy weather around,
00:51 it is going to feel cold indeed. Through the evening and overnight, outbreaks of rain-sleet
00:56 snow across northern areas generally push their way east and southward, so many of it
01:01 clears away towards the east, but some of it does push southward, so some outbreaks
01:05 of rain-sleet or snow pushing into North Wales and perhaps more central northern parts of
01:10 England as we go through the early hours of Wednesday. Something a little bit drier following
01:14 in behind across parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland, but also more snow showers then following
01:19 across northern areas in particular. To the south, we're likely to hold on to largely
01:24 clear skies, and so again, temperatures are going to take quite a drop. A widely frosty
01:29 night for many of us once more, many places falling several degrees below freezing, so
01:33 watch out for some icy patches first thing on Wednesday morning. The lowest temperatures
01:37 likely to be where we have some significant lying snow across parts of Scotland. Again,
01:41 we could fall into negative double figures, so a very cold start to the day here. Now,
01:46 Wednesday is still causing us some headaches. We have a weather system just to the south
01:50 of us, and it's likely to just avoid the UK, but potentially it will push a little bit
01:56 further northwards and reach more southern counties. If it does this, it could bring
02:00 some disruptive snow to southern areas, but like I said, most likely just to stay to the
02:05 south of us. Otherwise, and apart from some further snow showers feeding down from the
02:09 north, so particularly affecting northern parts of Scotland and anywhere exposed to
02:13 that northerly wind, it is going to be mostly dry with again some decent winter sunshine
02:18 for many of us. But staying cold, temperatures only getting a few degrees above freezing
02:22 for most. There is some more cold weather to come through the next few days, but as
02:26 we head towards the end of the week and into the weekend, temperatures should start to
02:30 lift that little bit, with more unsettled weather to come as well. Now, there will be
02:35 some more information, greater detail about the warnings and the wintry hazards we have
02:39 through the next few days in our deep dive with Annie, which will be available on our
02:42 YouTube channel this afternoon.
