Central, Tayside & Fife weather forecast
Headline:
Sunshine and showers with east seeing best of shelter.
Today:
Sunshine and showers through Monday with outbreaks occasional across western areas of Central and Tayside, but few reaching the east coast where the best of the sunshine develops. Westerly winds fresh, occasionally strong across the coasts. Maximum temperature 6 °C.
Tonight:
Further showers during the evening, again mainly focused in the west. Showers dwindling overnight, with most dry, clear and frosty come dawn Tuesday, as winds ease. Minimum temperature -4 °C.
Tuesday:
Most staying dry with best of the weak winter sunshine in Tayside and Angus, but the odd light shower may crop up in the west. Maximum temperature 6 °C.
Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:
Mainly dry and sunny Wednesday. Thursday rather cloudy with strengthening northerly winds, bringing showers or longer periods of rain, sleet, possibly snow. A few wintry showers in north for Friday.

UK long range weather forecast
From Thursday onwards, rather cold and unsettled conditions look likely for most of the UK, as a low pressure system remains to the northeast. Northwesterly winds from this system are expected to bring frequent showers, particularly to north and west-facing coasts, and this will likely fall as snow over high level areas, and also down to lower levels at times. Atlantic low-pressure systems are expected to cross the south of the country at times, bringing rainfall and periods of slightly milder temperatures, and there will be a risk of snowfall on the boundary between the mild and cold air masses. Northern and central areas are more likely to be affected by wintry hazards during this period.
Updated:
Confidence for this period is low, though there is a signal for weaker than average westerly winds and for Atlantic low-pressure systems to track further south than normal. This will bring below-average temperatures to the north of the UK, with a greater than normal risk of wintry precipitation. Further south, there is a continued risk of unsettled conditions, with above-average rainfall and periods of slightly above average temperatures. There remains the potential for significant snowfall along the boundary between colder air to the north, and the milder air in the south, with the greatest risk across central and northern areas. Through this period there is a greater than average chance of cold spells spreading across the whole UK at times with the associated risk of wintry hazards.
