UK Outlook for Tuesday 14 Feb 2012 to Thursday 23 Feb 2012:

Northerly winds on Tuesday mean a continuation of the recent cold weather is likely. Southern and western parts of the UK are likely to be mostly dry with some sunny spells, whilst showers are likely elsewhere. The showers are likely to turn increasingly wintry in eastern counties by early on Wednesday, with snow possible to low levels. During the second half of next week, southern parts should stay largely dry, whilst northern parts will probably be unsettled, with periods of cloudy weather and spells of rain, and snow on high ground. These more unsettled conditions will gradually spread to affect most parts during the following week, although may take some time to reach the far south. Temperatures will become generally close to average, but with a chance of overnight frosts.

UK Outlook for Friday 24 Feb 2012 to Friday 9 Mar 2012:

This period looks likely to be dominated by changeable, often unsettled weather, primarily moving in from the west. There are indications that there could be heavy rain in some places, with a possibility of above average rainfall for some. With winds likely to be generally from a westerly direction, temperatures are probably going to be around average for the time of year. Being late February/early March, this suggests that overnight frosts are still possible, especially during any quieter interludes. Near normal sunshine amounts are likely.
