Cnicht (Gwynedd) weather

Headline:

Often cloudy with some sunshine in places.

This Evening and Tonight:

Another largely cloudy end to the day with perhaps a few early evening sunny breaks. Clearer spells developing overnight allowing a rural grass frost in prone spots, as well as encouraging mist and fog patches to form. Minimum temperature 4 °C.

Friday:

A brighter start for many with variable amounts of cloud and sunny spells through the day, especially out to the west. Staying dry with temperatures a little above average. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Dry, but generally cloudy to start on Saturday. Increasingly windy later as rain moves eastwards into Sunday, followed by sunshine and heavy showers on Monday.

The unsettled weather looks to continue, with areas of low pressure running in from the west or southwest. This means further spells of rain or showers, possibly accompanied by strong winds at times, with one particular watch point for this in the first couple of days of this period. That said, some drier interludes are still probable, though the duration of these much shorter than the predominantly dry spell at present. Temperatures probably near normal overall, but day-to-day values high dependent on the track of any lows. Later in the period, there may be a transition to a slightly cooler and more showery northwesterly regime, as high pressure builds over the Atlantic and low pressure becomes centred to the east of the UK.

A showery northwesterly regime should give way to a generally changeable and at times unsettled period as we move into early November, as low pressure systems over the Atlantic track towards the UK. Given this setup, the wettest conditions are most likely in the west, and strong winds could feature at times too. There are just hints that a drier interlude may unfurl across more southern areas towards mid-month, which could increase the incidence of overnight fog.
