Thursday remains rather cloudy across much of England and Wales, although dry. It will be feeling a little less cold in the east as well. Some good spells of sunshine across western and southern Wales, southern and south-west England. Early freezing fog in Scotland will be slow to clear, but once it has, it should be Friday with good spells of sunshine. Ireland will have lots of sunshine for many, although always a risk of some low cloud affecting eastern coasts. Highs near 7C in the east, 4 to 5C for most other areas.

Friday
Pressure stays high through Friday. This brings another dry day for the vast majority of the British Isles. There will be cloud, especially in eastern areas of the country. The best of any brightness across western England and western Wales. Fog may be freezing and widespread across parts of Scotland, the far north of England and Ireland. Tops at 4 to 5C over Scotland, Wales and much of Ireland, but to 7C in eastern England.
