with a touch of frost in the north—east of the country as we go through into thursday. these next weather fronts that are pushing not quite as potent as we've seen so far this week. it will bring lots of cloud across the country. damp and drizzly, around some western coast and some of the heavier bursts of rain at times in the west, but a bit more erratic and not as windy as it will be during the next 36 hours. take care.
