Storm Goretti clearing eastwards.
Storm Goretti will slowly edge away, but rain and some snow continuing across the east of England. Elsewhere, a mixture of clear and sunny spells with a scattering of wintry showers in places. Windy and feeling cold.
Rain and sleet slowly clearing the east of England, with wintry showers continuing elsewhere, mostly along coastal region. Another cold night with widespread frost and ice. Winds easing further east.
Some wintry showers for parts of eastern England and Scotland. Dry with variable cloud elsewhere with frost inland unlikely to clear during the day. Much lighter winds than of late.
Further wet and windy weather moving east through Sunday, with some hill snow in the north. Can also be windy her. Milder for all by Monday and into Tuesday.

There is now much higher confidence for milder air to overspread the UK by the start of this period with the last of the cold air of the past couple of weeks expected to clear from the extreme northeast during the course of Monday. So this period likely to see brisk southwesterly winds bringing a very different feel to the weather than of late. There will be some rain or showers at times, but also a good deal of dry weather and although often cloudy, some brighter interludes are expected, especially to the lee of high ground. The milder conditions will see temperatures widely above average, and will lead to a rapid thaw of any remaining lying snow across northern parts of Scotland.

The outlook through the latter part of January and into the start of February is typically uncertain. A broadly southwesterly regime is marginally favoured bringing changeable conditions and spells of wet, windy and mild weather are likely, potentially with some very strong winds at times. However there is a chance that drier and colder conditions could extend into the UK from the east or northeast, along with a risk of some snow.
