Tideswell (Derbyshire) weather

Headline:

Some rain on Friday but brighter and more showery later.

Today:

A cloudy start, with outbreaks of showery rain moving south, perhaps some hill snow. Gradually becoming brighter, with further showers, locally heavy, in the afternoon. Breezy and still rather cold. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Tonight:

Any daytime showers fading this evening to leave a mostly dry night, with some clear spells developing. Perhaps the odd coastal shower. A cold night, with patchy frost. Light winds. Minimum temperature 0 °C.

Saturday:

A cold start, with a touch of frost in places. Otherwise, a largely dry day, with variable cloud and bright or sunny spells. Perhaps the odd shower. Light winds. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Becoming less cold into next week. Perhaps on the cloudy side on Sunday, but any showers increasingly isolated, with some brighter spells. Fine and dry conditions on Monday and Tuesday.

High pressure is expected to be centred to the east of the UK for much of next week. Initially there should be a good deal of dry weather with sunny spells by day, but still the potential for some chilly nights at first. Daytime temperatures will probably start around average, but gradually increase day by day. As we move towards the weekend and into the following week, we are likely to see a gradual transition to less settled conditions. So rain or showers are expected at times, mostly focussed across the south and west at first, then more widely later. With winds predominantly coming from the south or southwest it will also become much milder, possibly warm in places.

Confidence is low, but changeable weather patterns are most likely at the end of March. This means periods of unsettled, wet and windy weather interspersed with some drier and brighter spells. Into early April, there may be a transition to more frequent drier and more settled spells. Temperatures will probably be above average overall.
