Butleigh (Somerset) weather

Headline:

Cloudy and cold for most.

This Evening and Tonight:

Staying largely dry overnight with the blanket of cloud persisting. Some drizzle is possible, with perhaps a few snow grains over higher ground in eastern counties. Cold with a slight frost in places. Less cold in Cornwall with clearer intervals. Minimum temperature 0 °C.

Sunday:

Any drizzle or snow grains in eastern counties tending to fade away, leaving another grey, cloudy and cold day. Brighter intervals may develop at times, especially in Cornwall and Devon. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Mainly dry early next week with occasional bright spells, but often cloudy. Some rain or drizzle is possible, this increasingly likely by Wednesday. Staying chilly for most with fog possible.

A transition to a rather more changeable and at times unsettled weather pattern is likely to occur during the first few days of this period. Outbreaks of rain and freshening winds will probably make inroads from the southwest during Thursday ahead of conditions more widely becoming wetter and windier by the weekend. A return to periods of rain followed by showers, often accompanied by strong winds looks likely for the rest of the month, with the potential for weather warnings or even a named storm at some point before the month is out. Temperatures at least should recover in most places, ending up near average or even a little above, though admittedly not feeling like it at times.

The start of February is likely to continue on an unsettled and relatively mild theme, with periods of rain, showers and strong winds, alternating in most parts with short-lived brighter and cooler interludes. Pressure may build across southern areas towards mid-month, which would result in longer drier and more-settled spells here, albeit with an increased chance of overnight fog and frost.
