Sunny spells will follow, as wintry showers become confined to northern coastal counties. After dark, showers of sleet and snow will move into parts of the east, with highest temperatures of just one to five degrees, in light northerly or variable breezes. Much of the country will be dry on Friday with low winter sunshine. It will be very cold though with icy stretches, some lying snow, as well as freezing fog in parts.
