Cold and bright for most, wetter and windier in Cumbria
A frosty start for many, followed by sunny intervals across Lancashire, Merseyside, Greater Manchester and Cheshire. Cloud spreads in at times. Cumbria is cloudier, with rain early in the day and further showery bursts over the western fells into the afternoon, easing later.
It feels cold, with highs of 6C to 8C, up to 9C on the coast and only 2C to 5C on high ground. A brisk southerly wind brings gusts of 30 to 40 mph to exposed west Cumbrian coasts and hills, and 25 to 32 mph on the Lancashire coast. Inland, gusts mostly stay below 22 mph.
The evening is mainly dry with clear spells. Overnight there will be patchy frost, with lows of 1C to 4C, before cloud thickens and patchy rain reaches the west by morning.
