Today:

Cold and crisp start, with plenty of sunshine, and light winds. While the odd patch of cloud could develop through the day, it will stay dry, sunny but also rather cold for most. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Tonight:

Some thin cloud likely overnight, but also occasional clear spells. Staying cold with a widespread frost and light winds. Perhaps the odd patch of freezing fog developing in prone spots. Minimum temperature -5 °C.

Saturday:

Another largely fine day, with some brighter or sunny spells, but perhaps a little cloudier than Friday. This will lead to a rather cold feel, especially in the developing breeze. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Less cold on Sunday and Monday, but also turning changeable with spells of rain along with drier and brighter intervals. Unsettled on Tuesday, perhaps with more persistent rain.

A changeable and often rather unsettled period looks most likely. Further areas low pressure will move in from the Atlantic and whilst all parts are likely to see some rain at times, it is southern areas which may turn out to be wettest, relative to average conditions, through this period. Strong winds are also possible from time to time. Incursions of milder air are likely towards the south, but it could remain on the cold side overall further to the north, where there is potential for sharp overnight frosts where clear skies and light winds combine. By the latter part of this period, weather patterns in the vicinity of the UK may become rather more slowly evolving.

Changeable or unsettled conditions are expected initially, with Atlantic weather systems bringing spells of rain and strong winds at times, interspersed with brighter, showery periods. Through late-November, low pressure may become slower-moving to the west of the UK, potentially bringing more prolonged rainfall, particularly to southern and western areas, along with a continued risk of strong winds. Into December, confidence becomes low, but there is a possibility that low pressure tracks shift further south as high pressure builds to the north. This could bring further rain at times to central and southern areas, while northern parts become somewhat drier. Temperatures will probably be near or slightly above average in the south, with an increasing chance of colder conditions extending southwards from the north into December.
