Did you dig out your winter coat this morning? Don't worry, summer's back next week

Temperatures are set to drop down to between 1 and 4 degrees tonight.

In the meantime, the forecaster has said today will be cool and bright, with plenty of sunshine. But temperatures are set to drop down to between 1 and 4 degrees tonight, with some mist and even the possibility of frost. 

Tomorrow will be mostly dry again with sunny spells and some patchy drizzle in the west. 

Highest temperatures tomorrow afternoon are expected to be between 12 and 16 degrees. 

Saturday is expected to be cloudy and breezy but mild, with highest temperatures between 14 and 17 degrees.
