Heading into tonight, it will be cloudy in the north early on, with outbreaks of rain and drizzle which will gradually ease and clear eastward early on.

Otherwise, a generally dry night is instore with clear spells elsewhere and well scattered showers feeding in from the west, with lowest temperatures of 9 to 13 degrees.

Tomorrow, Thursday, will be a bright day with some spells of sunshine, though hazy in parts, and overall mainly dry for most.
