UK weather today: Rather cloudy and breezy across much of Scotland and perhaps the far north of Northern Ireland today, with outbreaks of rain moving eastwards. Largely dry elsewhere, with sunny spells, especially across the south. Rather cold, but the sunshine compensating somewhat. Tonight: Rain across Scotland and Northern Ireland becoming more widespread through the night, although far north clearer with the odd wintry shower. Largely dry but chilly elsewhere, with a patchy frost.
