Winds easing tonight but turning wet & windy tomorrow thanks to #StormBoelo. No weather warnings for Wales but winds increasing. Gale force on coasts & hills. Gusts 40-60mph. And turning milder. Sunday drier and sunnier but windy with a few scattered showers. Calmer Sunday night.

Unseasonably mild in Cardiff today with sunny intervals but a change on the way. A cold front will bring a spell of rain this evening and overnight. Much cooler and sunnier tomorrow with a few scattered showers. The weekend fine and sunny with colder nights and frost in places!

📺 Had a good laugh filming this with Derek. A proper nostalgia trip watching classic 70s and 80s telly for BBC Wales’ Back In The Day.
There’s a real joy in rewatching memorable TV (something #TOTP fans know all about!). Back on Fridays at 7.30pm on BBC One Wales.

#OnThisDay 1976: British Rail launched its new ‘HST’ high-speed train service – the fastest diesel trains in the world. Reporter Lucy Mathen jumped on board for a preview, enjoying a cuppa on the way, and arriving four minutes early into Cardiff.

Wales was the coldest part of the UK last night! Swyddffynnon in Ceredigion dropped close to freezing with a ground frost. Cloud spreading from the northwest today. Best of the sunshine in the south and southeast.

Cloud from a weak cold front over the far southeast of Wales will clear away this afternoon. Much of Wales already sunny. Gorgeous in Eryri with a light breeze.
