Lyme Regis (Dorset) weather

Headline:

Mainly cloudy with a few scattered showers

Today:

A grey morning with mist and hill fog slow to clear through the morning. Drizzly showers skirt the south coast, moving slowly eastwards through the day, with clearer skies to follow and even a few sunny spells. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Tonight:

Turning chilly beneath clear skies tonight with a frost forming in rural parts, and patchy fog in places too. Scattered showers arrive in the far west by morning. Minimum temperature 0 °C.

Thursday:

A breezy day, with showers spreading rapidly eastwards, heavy at times. Brighter skies to follow, with sunshine later in the afternoon, but turning chilly beneath clear skies into the evening. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Storm Éowyn brings wet and very windy conditions on Friday with coastal gales likely. Briefly more settled over the weekend, though still breezy at times with further scattered showers.

This looks like being and unsettled period across much of the country, but especially for northern and western parts. During Monday, another deep area of low pressure looks likely to move across the UK from the Atlantic, bringing wet and windy conditions to most if not all parts. Further spells of wet and windy weather look like moving east from the Atlantic to affect the UK during the rest of the period too, with drier, brighter spells in between. 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 or slightly above average, though wind and rain will make it feel chilly, and brief cool spells with some overnight frost are likely between weather systems.

Generally mild at first, with periods of rain, showers and strong winds alternating with short-lived brighter and cooler interludes. These may become increasingly confined to northern parts during this period though, with pressure possibly building across southern areas in particular. This would result in longer drier and more-settled spells here, albeit with an increased chance of overnight fog and frost and temperatures falling a little correspondingly.
