THE Met Office is predicting a dry day with sunny spells.

Despite a cold and frosty start to Wednesday, it is expected to be dry and mostly sunny, with the wind picking up later in the afternoon.

Temperatures could peak at around 9 °C but cloud and rain are set to approach from the northwest towards the evening in parts.

Tonight will become increasingly cloudy with the chance for the odd spot of rain in some areas, however, it will most likely be a dry night for most.
