Remaining rather cold, cloudy, damp and dull for many.
Largely cloudy with occasional rain and drizzle, and also some hill snow in the north. There will also be clearer skies, mainly across northern Scotland but then also some southern counties of England, giving a risk of a frost here.
Another rather cloudy and cold day with some further spells of rain and drizzle, especially in the east. Brightest conditions in sheltered parts of the west and northwest.
Remaining rather cold throughout with plenty of cloud around. Risk of some further rain at times, especially in the east, with some sleet and snow possible, mainly over hills.

An easterly or south-easterly wind is likely, with cold and cloudy weather continuing at first. Atlantic Low pressure however is inching closer to the British Isles, with bands of rain gradually moving into western parts. It is also possible that this might fall as snow initially as precipitation initially runs into resident cold air. Eastern areas of the country will hold on to relatively drier conditions for longer, but it will still feel cold under the cloud and wind. It is possible however that the cold, cloudy easterly or south-easterly theme continues. Eventually though it is thought that low pressure will push frontal bands of rain across much of the UK by the end of the week, with wind and rain becoming the dominant feature of the weather.
Updated:
An unsettled theme will probably have become established by this time, with weather systems moving close to or across the UK from the Atlantic. This will mean bands of rain and perhaps periods of strong winds spreading in from the west, interspersed with some drier and brighter interludes. Temperatures are most likely to be close to average overall.
