Scarves, gloves and hats will be needed if you intend to go along to one of the several firework night displays taking place on the Isle of Wight on Saturday night, as temperatures are set to drop to around five degrees.
Although the rain is pouring down outside at the moment (Friday lunchtime), the forecast for Saturday night is looking crisp and dry. Perfect firework night weather.
