Warmer air flowing in from the Atlantic has been chipping away at the cold, dense air over Scotland today and through tonight and tomorrow the warmer air takes charge across all of the UK atmosphere with temperatures back up to 9-13C.

For us here in western Europe, we’re entering a classic benign pattern with a calm end to the cold spell as ridging warms the mid and upper layers.

Today a frontal system will bring rain to parts of Ireland, England, Wales and Southwest Scotland but it’s another front edging into NW Scotland which is the door to the coldest air of the season.

Make the most of this weekend’s push of milder air from the southwest ahead of the front because temperatures will crash from 11 or 12C over Scotland down to just 2 or 3C by Wednesday as the first blast from the arctic drops south.
