Wednesday was one of the coldest days of the week, but with a lot of sunshine to compensate. Although the weather will warm slightly towards the end of the week, more cold weather is set for the weekend.

A Met Office spokeswoman said: “Gradually some slightly warmer air will push in for the latter part of the week, but we have a band of rain pushing in Saturday which will push much colder air in behind it.”
