And for those who are interested here's what the weather forecast reads like: "For many places a dry and clear night allowing a hard frost to develop. Wintry showers continue near the North Coast. Minimum temperature -4 C."
The forecast for tomorrow, November 21, states: "Bright spells and further wintry showers, particularly in the north, merging into some longer spells of sleet and snow later. Occasionally fresh west to northwest winds. Maximum temperature 5 C."
