MAKE THE BEST OF TODAY'S SUNSHINE!  LAST NIGHT WAS THE 2nd COLDEST OF THE YEAR TO DATE (only 16th Jan. was lower)

A very frosty start, but with blue skies & sunshine once again. The sunshine should last for the best part of the day, but later in the afternoon, it is expected to become more cloudy from the east, heralding several days of colder & cloudier conditions with fresher winds, as high pressure becomes established to the north & north east.
