Frost never lasts long once the sun rises within those clear blue skies. Dry air cools quickly after sunset but also heats fast at sunrise this time of year.

Make the most of today’s pleasant sunshine and light winds because the next system arrives overnight tonight.

It’s not too late to mention the ‘S’ word… Yes, this next system will drag in enough cold air that snow returns to the hills of the North.

Later Thursday into Friday, westerly winds increase as the pressure fields tightens and forces a faster arrival of not one but two lows (Fri-Sat).

Looking like a mucky weekend with strong west winds (possibly widespread gales) on the backside of the Saturday low.
