A chilly start to the day, with frost on the grass earlier on. Essentially a day of sunshine & showers ahead.

Between any showers, there are likely to be dry spells with some bright sunshine. Feeling rather cold in the showers & out of the sun, with best temperatures hardly into double figures. Winds moderate from W to NW. A chilly night ahead.
