00:00Good morning, and welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office.

00:04Change on its way through today, turning colder from the north, and that's thanks to this

00:08cold front sinking south through the rest of Saturday, introducing some cooler air across

00:12the UK to start the day on Sunday, before things turn a touch milder from the west again

00:18as a new frontal system arrives.

00:21But back to this morning.

00:22So this is the frontal system, the cold front draped across Central Park, the UK, sinking

00:26south as we head through, rain turning a touch lighter on that by the time we head in towards

00:30the afternoon, but quite a cloudy day for Wales and the far south of England through

00:36most of Saturday.

00:37Further north, though, cooler and brighter, but with some blustery showers, particularly

00:41on the north coast of Northern Ireland and across the northern parts of Scotland as well.

00:47Temperatures noticeably cooler here, eight or nine degrees for Northern Ireland and Scotland.

00:51Milder, though, across the south, perhaps up to 13 degrees across the far southwest.

00:56Heading through Saturday evening into the frontal system, sinking slowly southwards,

01:00giving quite a damp evening across much of the southern half of the UK of England.

01:05But we do start to see some cooler and fresher air moving in into the start of Sunday.

01:10Plenty of clear spells around, particularly along the east coast of England and Scotland,

01:14and temperatures will be noticeably cooler to start the day on Sunday.

01:18widespread frost across the far north of Scotland, northern England, and there will

01:22be some frost and perhaps fog patches across southern parts of England and Wales as well.

01:28So a cool and bright start to the day on Sunday across eastern parts.

01:32But we do start to see a new frontal system arriving from the west through Sunday morning,

01:38giving quite a grey and damp start to Northern Ireland and steadily moving eastwards as we

01:43head in towards Sunday afternoon.

01:45So as that mild air pushes into the cool air across parts of Scotland, we could just see

01:50some of that turning to snow over the high ground.

01:52But further south, it's going to be still quite mild, 11 or 12 degrees across the southwest,

01:57single figures down the east coast of the UK.

02:00And it will be turning quite wet and breezy across the far north of Northern Ireland too.

02:07But as we head through the rest of Sunday, so we do have some warnings in force for some

02:11snow.

02:12Especially for parts of northern Scotland, for snow showers and some ice in the mix.

02:17And then the next major feature is this low pressure moving in on Monday morning.

02:21And where we see that cool air meeting the mild air, there is a chance of some disruptive

02:25snow, particularly over parts of the Pennines.

02:27So we have a warning in force for that.

02:30If you want to keep on top of that snow warning, please do have a look at our YouTube channel.
