Picton Castle Gardens (Pembrokeshire) weather

Headline:

Settled in the south, cloudy and damp in the north.

Today:

Early morning mist and fog lift into a blanket of cloud. Dry and settled in the south with the best of the brightness along the south coast. Staying grey and gloomy in the north with persistent light rain and drizzle. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Tonight:

Widely cloudy with rain and drizzle spreading slowly towards the southeast. Low cloud sees the return of hill fog across higher ground, and although chilly, most places remaining frost free. Minimum temperature 1 °C.

Wednesday:

Settled with occasional brighter breaks in the southwest, but remaining cloudy for most with occasional spots of light rain or drizzle. Light winds for all. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Turning wet and increasingly windy. Persistent rain, heavy at times spreads eastwards through Thursday and Friday. Frequent, blustery showers to follow on Saturday, though some brighter breaks too.

This looks like being and unsettled and disturbed period of weather across much of the country, but especially for northern and western parts, with southern and eastern areas probably missing the worst of the conditions a lot of the time. Over the weekend, after Friday's deep low and associated stormy weather, another system looks likely to move towards the UK from the Atlantic, driven in by the strong jet stream. There is the potential for further weather warnings or even a named storm at some point. Temperatures overall, are likely to end up being around normal or slightly above average, though given the strength of wind at times, it probably won't feel especially mild, especially when it's raining too.

Generally mild at first, with periods of rain, showers and strong winds, alternating with short-lived brighter and cooler interludes, but with time these should become increasingly confined to northern parts. Pressure may build across southern areas, which would result in longer drier and more-settled spells here, albeit with an increased chance of overnight fog and frost with temperatures falling correspondingly.
