Chance of an isolated snow or soft hail flurry. Where these do form, they will move around slowly for an hour or so.

0C rising to 3C.
Frost in some valleys and sheltered higher slopes from dawn; then typically just above freezing to highest summits.
High pressure influences Britain through the next week to 10 days, maintaining quiet and fairly cool conditions, although a gradual rise of temperature is expected. Frost remains common, with a general rise of freezing level on the mountains into the afternoons. Existing lying snow on higher mountains will stay in place, thawing slightly during daytimes. Sun and variable cloud; most mountains often clear. Very little precipitation, apart from very isolated showers of snow or soft hail. Mostly light winds, but there may be some strengthening of wind around next weekend.
