This Evening and Tonight:

Generally cloudy this evening with hill fog and a few spots of drizzle at times where the clouds thickest. Occasional clear spells overnight, mainly across parts of Cumbria. A much milder night than recently. Minimum temperature 4 °C.

Thursday:

Any low cloud gradually breaking to leave some sunny breaks, but for most it remains often cloudy. Some drizzle possible over the hills. Feeling slightly milder. Maximum temperature 12 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Often cloudy on Friday with mist, fog and drizzly rain in places. Becoming brighter from the north later Saturday, then windier with rain or showers on Sunday. Turning colder.

Frequent wintry showers are expected, mainly in the north and along eastern and western coasts where exposed to the strong north to northwesterly flow. Snow is likely to fall to low levels, especially in the north. Many inland areas may be largely dry with lengthy sunny spells, especially where sheltered from the flow. However, there is a risk of some more organised areas of rain and hill snow running east across more southern parts. The chance of any widespread or disruptive snowfall affecting more populated areas at this stage remains low though. Cold everywhere with overnight frost, and the strong winds will result in significant wind chill. There is a hint that it may become less cold later in the period, with more of a westerly flow becoming established.

Signals vary in prevailing weather patterns through this period but likely mainly unsettled and rather cold for the start of the period. There is a chance of more mobile weather patterns which would see Atlantic systems periodically move across the country. These will bring some wetter and windier interludes with a risk of some snow, especially for hills of the north. A trend toward less mobile weather or more settled conditions is favoured into December, although some wetter and windier interludes remain likely at times. Temperatures also trending closer to average, especially in the south.
