Shiregreen (South Yorkshire) weather

Headline:

Turning much colder this week, breezy at times.

Today:

Largely fine with plenty of sunshine but noticably colder than of late, especially in the east with fairly brisk northerly winds. Scattered showers affecting eastern areas through the morning, but these becoming restricted to coastal fringes by the afternoon. Maximum temperature 7 °C.

Tonight:

Coastal showers easing to leave a dry, mostly clear and cold night with winds falling light. A fairly widespread frost developing inland by morning. Minimum temperature -1 °C.

Tuesday:

A widely bright and frosty start. Cloud and outbreaks of rain spread southeast during the afternoon, perhaps wintry for some upland areas. Maximum temperature 6 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Rain and hill snow clearing southeast on Wednesday with strong winds, showers developing. Cold and bright Thursday and Friday, widespread overnight frosts and scattered coastal showers expected, these likely wintry.

A widespread and in places sharp frost to begin Friday. Then a transition during the day to less cold and more generally unsettled conditions as Atlantic weather fronts make inroads into the UK. These will bring spells of rain potentially quite widely, though the wettest conditions through the latter part of November may occur across more southern areas. There is also the potential for some windy weather to develop at times, again this perhaps more likely further to the south. Compared to the preceding few days, a reduced likelihood of snowfall, though some upland snow remains possible in the north. Temperatures probably returning closer to average, generally speaking, for late November, and perhaps becoming mild at times in the south.

Whilst there is a lot of uncertainty as to the flavour of weather affecting the UK into December, there is a greater chance than normal of slower evolving weather patterns. A mixture of weather types seems most likely and so some wetter days, with widespread rain or showers and the chance of snow, mainly for higher ground in the north. Equally some drier periods are also anticipated, increasing the possibility of some frosty nights and fog. Overall, temperatures close to average are most likely, but some colder spells are also possible, especially if any prolonged settled spells develop.
