Wintry showers after a frosty start.
A frosty start with sunny spells and wintry showers west of the region. Showers becoming both more widespread and heavier across the region through the afternoon as cloud thickens. Feeling cold. Maximum temperature 8 °C.
Showers continuing through the evening before becoming drier for most overnight under cloudy skies. Frosts likely with a risk of ice too. Feeling cold. Minimum temperature -2 °C.
After a frosty start most will see a dry day with plenty of sunny spells. Wintry outbreaks of rain, heavy at times, will arrive from the west overnight. Feeling cold. Maximum temperature 5 °C.
Rain and hill snow followed by sunny spells on Sunday. Drier with sunny spells on Monday. Rain, sleet, and hill snow on Tuesday. Cold with ice and frost risks throughout.
Updated:
Unsettled conditions look likely to dominate for this period, with low pressure across the UK. This should bringing changeable weather to most of the country, with periods of rain, showers, and strong winds at times. While westerly and southwesterly winds are expected to be dominant for most of the period, occasional northerly winds are possible, brining a chance of snowfall, likely confined to the far north. Milder conditions in generally may start to spread across most of the UK at points during most of this period. Towards the end of the period, we may see high pressure bringing a higher than average chance of cold weather with wintry outbreaks. However, there is a chance of drier than average conditions, which would bring increased frost and fog risks.
Updated:
Confidence for this period is low, though low pressure is likely to be dominant at first with an increased chance of northerly winds. This will therefore increase the risk of snowfall especially in the north along with colder than average temperatures, potentially bringing wintry hazards more widely. Through mid-February higher pressure may develop for a time which would bring drier conditions with an increased likelihood of fog and cold, frosty nights.
