TRENDS remain the same as discussed yesterday, largely dry and fairly average temperatures for late January, with light winds dominant.
FORECASTS
TODAY will be sunny with cloudy intervals, the clouds somewhat more frequent in the west and north, with highs 8 to 10 C.
TONIGHT will remain clear in parts of the south with local frosts, lows near -3 C. More cloud is likely further north which will keep temperatures in a milder range of 2 to 5 C.
FRIDAY will be cloudy with a few breaks, those more likely in the east and south. Highs 6 to 9 C.
SATURDAY will be partly cloudy east to overcast west, with a few sprinkles of rain there, lows 1 to 4 C and highs 7 to 10 C.
SUNDAY will be partly cloudy with lows -2 to +3 C and highs 8 to 10 C.
Most of next week now seems destined to be governed by this never-shifting high pressure area and we cannot really put a very definite time on the breakdown but it seems likely to be around the end of next week or just before the end of the month.
