The weather may be looking clear today, but a fashion clash was on the cards as BBC Breakfast's Carol Kirkwood and Louise Minchin appeared on TV wearing the same dress.
Kirkwood tweeted after eagle-eyed viewers commented on social media.
She wrote: "For those asking, lovely @louiseminchin and I didn't deliberately wear the same dress (in different colours) this morning - pure coincidence."

Minchin added: "A late change on my part!" and also tweeted: "So, I changed at 5 to 6 so I wasn't wearing the same as @stephbreakfast and managed to put on the same dress as @carolkirkwood! #dressclash".
Kirkwood sported the v-neck dress with a pink top and purple bottom half, while Minchin's frock had two hues of blue, a lighter one at the top and darker one at the bottom.
The dress, from Diva Catwalk, is called Nadia Colour Block Sleeved Dress and costs £115.
Viewers didn't seem to mind the fashion clash, with one tweeting: "#bbc breakfast @louiseminchin and @carolkirkwood look fab in their matching dresses today."

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
