There will be some icy patches as rain, sleet and snow clear away, according to the Met Office forecast. 

There has been some disruption to bus services due to icy conditions on the roads but the forecast claims the day will become brighter with plenty of sunshine, but it will still feel cold in a brisk breeze.
