Meto Uk Further Outlook

[AWD]

We are getting there slowly!

[johnholmes]

I have to say I think they are rather late in issuing this for the back end of this week. I wonder why they were so reluctant to do so?

[liam300]

perhaps if you carefully read the whole bit about temperatures?

Temperatures near or above normal, and locally warm any sunny spells. Temperatures returning to nearer average from later next week, with an increasing risk of overnight frost in the north. A greater chance of rain across the UK into the following week, although mainly in the west and northwest. Still plenty of dry weather though, particularly in the southeast, but temperatures falling a little below normal across all parts.

Apologies it was incorrect read

UK Outlook for Friday 26 Oct 2012 to Sunday 4 Nov 2012:

A cold spell of weather will extend across the UK by the weekend behind a band of rain spreading south. Over the weekend, wintry showers are likely to affect mainly northern and eastern parts of the UK, especially over high ground with some accumulations possible in the north. Elsewhere it will be brighter and drier with spells of sunshine, but it will be cold and windy with a widespread overnight frost likely. Early next week there will be a return to more unsettled conditions from the north and west, with some wet and windy periods likely. Temperatures will remain below average for the time of year with a widespread overnight frost, even in the south.

UK Outlook for Saturday 27 Oct 2012 to Monday 5 Nov 2012:

A cold spell is likely to become established over the whole of the UK at the start of this period with a mixture of sunny spells and wintry showers for most. The showers will be initially most frequent in the north and east, while southern and southwestern parts see the best of the sunshine. It will also be windy in most areas. Some more persistent rain is possible for a time later on in the first weekend, but the relatively cold and unsettled conditions will return thereafter, with sometimes prolonged wintry showers interspersed with drier and brighter periods. Often windy, with gales probable in the north and west at times. Overnight frosts becoming widespread on some nights, with a risk of icy stretches developing where surfaces remain wet.

UK Outlook for Sunday 28 Oct 2012 to Tuesday 6 Nov 2012:

After a mainly dry, chilly start in the south, cloud and rain will spread from the north to most areas during Sunday, with hill snow probable for a time. After this clears, the UK will settle into a regime of mostly rather cold and unsettled weather, with a mixture of sunny spells and wintry showers interspersed with periods of more persistent rain, sleet and hill snow, the hill snow mainly in the north. It will often be windy, with gales probable in the north and west at times. Although occasional spells of near-normal temperatures are likely, on the whole it will be rather cold. Overnight frosts are likely to be widespread on some nights, even in the south, with a risk of icy stretches developing where surfaces remain wet.

Another upgrade, if this continues I expect more in the way of sleet/snow being in the forecast.

[Stuart]

UK Outlook for Monday 29 Oct 2012 to Wednesday 7 Nov 2012:

The weather is likely to remain rather unsettled during the last few days of October and the first week of November. Most places will probably see a mixture of sunny spells and showers, with some more persistent rain likely at times. Initially, the heaviest and most prolonged spells of rain will tend to be across northern and western parts of the UK, but all parts could be affected by the middle of next week. Some sleet or snow is also possible at times, this mainly across hills and mountains in the north. It will be windy at times, with gales possible on exposed coasts and high ground. Occasional periods of near-normal temperatures are likely, on the whole it will be colder than average for the time of year.

The weather is likely to remain rather unsettled during the last couple of days of October and the first week of November. Most places will probably see a mixture of sunny spells and showers, with some more persistent rain likely at times. Initially, the heaviest and most prolonged spells of rain will tend to be across northwestern parts of the UK with bright or sunny spells elsewhere. Most areas will see some rain by the middle of next week, and sleet or snow is possible across hills and mountains in the north. It will be windy at times, with gales possible on exposed coasts and high ground. Temperatures are likely to be close to or below average for the time of year throughout the period.

UK Outlook for Wednesday 31 Oct 2012 to Friday 9 Nov 2012:

Conditions are likely to remain largely unsettled throughout the period. Rain spreading across all parts through Wednesday, heavy at times, especially over western upslopes. Brighter but showery conditions will follow from the north through Thursday, with showers wintry over northern hills. It will be windy, particularly towards the north and west, with temperatures near or below normal and frosts in places. Further rain or showers are expected through Friday and the weekend, with heavy rain at times and hill snow in the north. Staying windy with the threat of gales in exposed regions. Towards the end of the period, there are some signs that less unsettled conditions develop across the south but confidence of this is low. Temperatures remaining close to below average throughout with a frost risk for some.

UK Outlook for Thursday 1 Nov 2012 to Saturday 10 Nov 2012:

Unsettled conditions look to prevail across the United Kingdom throughout this period. Rain across eastern areas on Thursday should gradually clear away, as clearer showery conditions follow on, with showers heaviest and most frequent in the north and west, and with a wintry component likely over high ground in the north. The first weekend of November looks to see further rain or showers across all parts of the UK, with unsettled conditions persisting into November, especially across the north. Some brief drier interludes may develop further to the south towards the end of this period. Generally windy, with a risk of gales, especially in the north. Temperatures often below normal to start, but perhaps recovering, at least for a time, to nearer normal values as we approach mid November.
