Bow Fell (Cumbria) weather

Headline:

A chilly and foggy start, with sunshine to come.

Today:

A chilly start for many with patchy fog around for some. Any fog should clear through the morning to leave a dry and bright day with pleasant autumnal sunshine. Light easterly winds throughout. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Tonight:

Dry overnight with plenty of clear spells across the region. Fog may once again redevelop in prone spots. Chilly, with frost possible in rural areas. Minimum temperature 2 °C.

Tuesday:

Dry but somewhat cloudier for many, although some bright or hazy sunshine possible. Rain arriving into the south later and winds increasing through the day. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Cloud and patchy rain to the south initially on Wednesday but turning brighter for all through the afternoon. Dry and bright conditions continue beyond this, turning chilly.

High pressure will initially dominate, leading to widely settled conditions and overnight frost. A few showers will be possible, particularly in northern and western Scotland, and perhaps along some North Sea coasts for a time. Later in the weekend, a transition to more unsettled conditions is expected as bands of rain, and associated areas of low pressure, arrive from the North Atlantic, bringing more widespread wet and windy weather. It is likely to remain fairly changeable through the remainder of the period, with occasional rain interspersed with brighter, showery spells. Whilst colder conditions will be possible at times, especially at first, it will often be mild, with temperatures near or a little above average for the time of year.

Changeable or unsettled conditions are expected through late November and into early December, as Atlantic frontal systems track close to or across the UK at times. These will bring periods of rain and strong winds, interspersed with brighter, more showery interludes. Temperatures will often be mild, particularly away from the far northwest where brief colder interludes are possible. Although confidence is low, there may be a tendency for the track of low pressure systems to shift southwards later in the period. In this scenario, rain will still be possible at times across central and southern parts of the UK, while more northern areas may become somewhat drier and perhaps colder.
