Chilly tonight, with some snow and freezing rain in Scotland.
Outbreaks of rain moving across Northern Ireland, Scotland and the far north of England through this evening and overnight, falling as snow or freezing rain for parts of Scotland. Largely dry elsewhere with a patchy frost forming.
Rain and hill snow will clear from the north tomorrow. A breezy day for many, with some sunny spells. Still feeling cold, with a brisk southeasterly breeze.
Turning much milder through this period, but also more unsettled. Bands of rain are likely most days, especially across the north and west. Often windy, with the risk of gales.
Updated:
Frontal systems likely to continue spreading across the UK from the Atlantic during this period. These systems will bring spells of rain to many parts of the UK. The heaviest and most prolonged rainfall is expected to be in west and north-western areas, particularly over higher ground, with rainfall totals much lower in the east and southeast. Strong winds are also likely to develop at times, especially along coasts where gales or severe gales are possible. Between weather systems, some drier and more settled interludes are expected, these bringing lighter winds and sunny spells, perhaps accompanied by a few showers. Temperatures are likely be above average, especially early in this period when it will be very mild.

Early March is likely to continue to see unsettled weather, with Atlantic frontal systems spreading across the UK from the west. These will bring spells of rain and strong winds at times, interspersed by some drier, brighter periods between systems. Into the middle of the month, drier, more settled conditions may become more prevalent, especially in the south. Temperatures are most likely to be above average.
