Despite the chill, Wednesday will see mostly dry weather with a few sunny spells for those away from the northwest. However, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and northern parts of England and Wales should expect some rain and drizzle later in the day. By afternoon, skies in Scotland and Northern Ireland might brighten up again.

Temperatures in the southeast could still reach a pleasant 17 to 18°C, but don’t be fooled—the cool air is coming! As evening arrives, rain and cloud cover will head south with clearer skies up north, which might just lead to some frost.
