South West England weather forecast

Headline:

Frosty again overnight and staying cold this weekend.

This Evening and Tonight:

Quickly turning widely frosty this evening under clearing skies. Staying dry overnight with freezing fog patches forming, these most likely in eastern counties of the region. Wintry showers may arrive in the west of Cornwall later. Minimum temperature -5 °C.

Saturday:

Freezing fog slow to lift in the east, possibly lingering into the afternoon. Otherwise, some winter sunshine for many but showers are possible in Cornwall and Devon, especially later. Cold. Maximum temperature 6 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Turning increasingly unsettled through the period with spells of rain and perhaps hill snow at first. Perhaps driest on Tuesday. Turning a little milder but still feeling chilly at times.

Updated:

UK long range weather forecast

A fair amount of uncertainty at the start of this period as milder and more generally unsettled conditions across the south and west try and extend further north and east through the week. Its likely that these milder conditions will ultimately spread to the whole UK, but it may well take until Thursday or even Friday before they reach the extreme north pf Scotland. Elsewhere, milder, or at least less cold weather than the preceding days, with areas of rain and stronger winds, more especially in the west, this erratically spreading further north and east with time. Moving towards mid December and more generally unsettled and milder conditions look most probable although a return of the colder conditions cannot be ruled out entirely.

Updated:

Conditions are most likely to be changeable through this period. Wetter and windier than average conditions are slightly more likely than normal, especially in the west and northwest. Temperatures are most likely to be near or above average overall, especially in the south and west. It is possible that there ill be further colder interludes, but these likely to be short lived at first. Perhaps a greater chance of a longer cold spell late in the period.
