Wet weather in the south clears to leave rather cold and bright conditions across the UK. Dry conditions are expected in the south tomorrow and through the weekend. In the north there is a greater risk of showers or longer spells of rain, and it is likely to be cold enough for snow over the Scottish mountains.

Tonight outbreaks of rain push into northern and western Scotland. Over high ground they could fall as snow. In the north there will be a lot of cloud, but clear periods allow temperatures to tumble in southern and central regions. A widespread ground frost develop and in places temperatures will fall below freezing point.
Tomorrow it remains dry and bright in southern and central regions. However, in the north it will be cloudy, with further showery spells of rain. The heaviest of them are expected to be in northern and western Scotland. Rather cold.
UK Met UKV, Friday 11th October [Tap animation to toggle cities]
A ridge of high pressure building in from the west brings dry conditions on Sunday. Frost may be widespread in southern and central regions early on and temperatures struggle through the day.
During the early part of next week high pressure becomes centred to the east. It leads to a south or southeasterly flow, so temperatures will be rising. Initially a lot of dry weather is likely, but the risk of rain steadily increases.
