SOUTH WEST AND WALES (and south western Ireland)
Updated 10/03/2010 08:44:25
The hoped for westerly swells look very small but should just provide a ride at the best spots and tide times today but they will fade flat for the weekend . High pressure is solidly in command and will stay that way until the middle of next week at least. After that it looks likely that a set of more normal westerly winds and waves will return. for the surfing commuters the best chance of a wave this weekend is probably on the east coast but there is no guarantee of quality. - SoulSurfer
WEATHER
Cold and damp with a frost in the north tonight.
Today:
Many places will have a cloudy day with a few outbreaks of light rain or drizzle. A few spots in the south and west could well stay dry though and have a little brightness. Feeling cold everywhere.
Tonight:
Any light rain or drizzle will tend to peter out this evening with most places becoming dry overnight. Cloud will break from the north allowing a frost to form.
Wednesday:
Further cloud with outbreaks of rain will move down from the north during the day. Some of this will turn to sleet or snow over the hills.
Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:
Mostly dry and cold on Thursday with some sunshine and the odd shower. The weekend stays mostly dry and fine but very cold with an overnight sharp frost.
