Rain early, late today, but turning dry, bright for time.
Cloudy start with occasional patchy rain. Turning dry and increasingly bright from south from mid-morning, bringing a settled early afternoon, however cloud thickening from the southwest to bring periods of occasionally heavy rain to most by early evening. Maximum temperature 10 °C.
Overcast with periods of rain, with heavier outbreaks through the evening. Winds generally light and variable in direction, perhaps freshening across northern coasts overnight. Minimum temperature 2 °C.
Quite a cloudy day with patchy light rain through the morning. Slowly and erratically the rain will clear southwards during the afternoon, perhaps allowing some late brightness to develop. Maximum temperature 9 °C.
Mainly dry with some brighter spells. However a chance of periods of rain, snow spreading from southwest at times.
Updated:
Going into next week, it is likely that unsettled conditions will dominate, with low pressure systems moving in off the Atlantic. The weather will be changeable. Periods of rain or wintry showers, and strong winds are likely, especially in the west, with brief more settled spells in between. Westerly or southwesterly winds during this period will bring milder conditions to most areas, but occasional interludes of cold northerly winds are possible. It will be on this boundary between the colder and milder airmasses where any snowfall to lower levels could possibly occur. Towards the end of this period, we may see high pressure build over the north of the UK, bringing colder conditions and wintry outbreaks.
Updated:
Although confidence at this range is low, current signals suggest that high pressure could be positioned over the north of the UK during this period. This would likely bring wintry outbreaks and colder than average temperatures to northern areas, as well as increasing the likelihood of more widespread cold spells. Any periods of milder, unsettled weather are more likely to be confined to central and southern areas, where greater than average rainfall is predicted. There is a continued risk of significant snowfall events on the boundary between colder and milder airmasses, with snow possible to low elevations.
