storm pia has been bringing some very strong winds, particularly to the northern half of the uk, and it has been bringing some issues. for example, here on the bottom bridge just by the trafford centre on manchester's orbital m60 motorway, a lorry got blown over by the strong winds. reports of some transport disruption elsewhere. a top gust of 81 mph recorded in shetland, into the 70s across mainland scotland and over the very tops of the pennines as well. now the core of storm pia is actually now moving into scandinavia. we get a core of really strong winds going into denmark over the next few hours. gusts could reach 80—90 mph, strong enough to bring some disruption here and maybe even blow some roofs off buildings. across the uk, plenty of showers or lengthier outbreaks of rain across north western areas of the country overnight. but with colder air in shetland, well, here the rain turns to snow, could be several centimetres, even blizzards for a time. icy conditions then to watch out for for the first part of friday morning. friday is going to be another unsettled day. still quite blustery. the north westerly winds bringing showers or lengthier outbreaks of rain across northern and western areas. something a bit drier and brighter across eastern scotland, where it stays on the cold side.
7:57 pm
and we should have largely dry conditions across southern wales and much of southern england as well. heading through friday night time into the early part of saturday, we get this battle zone between the relatively mild air that most of the uk will have, the colder air feeding in across northern scotland, into that mix, we get this weather front moving in. it looks like we could well see a spell of snow getting down potentially to quite low elevations across the very far north of scotland with a risk of icy stretches building in here. otherwise, friday night is going to be a mild night. no chance of any snow with temperatures for most of you at around 8—10 celsius. on into the start of the weekend then, saturday sees further outbreaks of rain across scotland, milder air moving in here, so any snow turning back to rain. away from that, something a bit brighter across southern areas, very mild, temperatures around 12—13 celsius, staying on the blustery side. what about christmas eve? well, south westerly winds dominate the country. outbreaks of rain around, mild weather conditions,
