Muscliff (Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole) weather

Headline:

A dry morning for most with any fog clearing to leave some bright or sunny spells in places. Thicker cloud and perhaps some drizzle in Gloucestershire, and clouding over more widely during the afternoon. Feeling milder than of late. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Staying mostly cloudy this evening and overnight with mist and murk in coastal and upland areas and perhaps patchy fog. A few clearer spells in the far west. Largely frost-free. Minimum temperature 4 °C.

Wednesday:

A grey and rather murky day for many, with fog possible in places. One or two brighter breaks, but west Cornwall best placed to see some sunshine. Remaining milder. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Staying generally dry. A lot of cloud for most, but some sunshine is likely at times. Temperatures near average overall but frost and fog remains possible during overnight clear spells.

This period is expected to see a transition, possibly lasting over several days, between the settled, dry, and often dull conditions expected over the next few days, to something more unsettled. Sunday itself is likely to be rather cloudy and cool, with outbreaks of rain in the west drifting slowly eastwards. The start of the following week will most likely see more settled conditions with light winds becoming re-established, with a chance of rain in both the far north and the far south, and a smaller chance that the rain could become more widespread. Later in the week, periods of much wetter and windier weather will most likely become more prevalent, from northwest to southeast, alternatively there is a very small chance of colder, drier, but perhaps wintry, easterly winds.

A dominant flow from the Atlantic looks likely through this period, resulting in an unsettled, milder and windier than average period. This is likely to result in areas of rain and periods of stronger winds affecting most if not all parts of the UK at times, though with the wettest and windiest weather probably occurring towards the north and west. However, the potential for brief colder spells with associated frost, ice and snow remains, following any deep lows crossing the region.
