Headline:

Turning more unsettled through the week.

Today:

A chilly and foggy start to the day for many, with fog dense for some. The fog will gradually lift and thin through the morning, leaving a generally dry day with some decent sunny spells developing during the afternoon. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Tonight:

Dry overnight with plenty of clear spells across the region. Fog is likely to reform once again, most extensive in northern spots. Chilly, with frost possible in rural areas. Minimum temperature 2 °C.

Tuesday:

A foggy start for many, which is gradually clear. Cloud and rain spreading into southern parts through the morning, spreading to most parts later. Winds increasing through the day. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Cloud and patchy rain on Wednesday but turning drier and somewhat brighter for all through the afternoon. Drier for many on Thursday with some rain to the southwest. Brighter Friday.

High pressure will initially dominate, leading to widely settled conditions and overnight frost. A few showers will be possible, particularly in northern and western Scotland, and perhaps along some North Sea coasts for a time. Later in the weekend, a transition to more unsettled conditions is expected as bands of rain, and associated areas of low pressure, arrive from the North Atlantic, bringing more widespread wet and windy weather. It is likely to remain fairly changeable through the remainder of the period, with occasional rain interspersed with brighter, showery spells. Whilst colder conditions will be possible at times, especially at first, it will often be mild, with temperatures near or a little above average for the time of year.

Changeable or unsettled conditions are expected through late November and into early December, as Atlantic frontal systems track close to or across the UK at times. These will bring periods of rain and strong winds, interspersed with brighter, more showery interludes. Temperatures will often be mild, particularly away from the far northwest where brief colder interludes are possible. Although confidence is low, there may be a tendency for the track of low pressure systems to shift southwards later in the period. In this scenario, rain will still be possible at times across central and southern parts of the UK, while more northern areas may become somewhat drier and perhaps colder.
