This Evening and Tonight:

Mostly dry overnight with clear spells, though the odd shower may drift into the coast and push further inland. A chilly night, but a strengthening breeze later will keep it largely frost free. Minimum temperature 3 °C.

Saturday:

Bright to begin the weekend, though sunshine diminishing through the day as cloud builds. Winds strengthening with coastal gales developing by evening as rain arrives into Cumbria. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Increasingly wet and windy on Sunday with gales around coasts and hills, though southern counties perhaps remaining dry. Staying unsettled into next week with further rain and brisk winds expected.

Unsettled at first with showers or longer spells of rain affecting the UK at times. Some heavy rain is possible anywhere, but it is likely to be heaviest and most persistent in the west and northwest, with sheltered parts of the east and southeast typically drier. Any snow will probably be confined to high ground in the north. Strong winds are possible at times with a risk of gales, especially along coasts and over higher ground. Temperatures are likely to be above normal overall. Later in the period, conditions may start to become a little more settled, with rainfall amounts decreasing and drier weather becoming more prevalent. This may mean an increasing amount of overnight fog and frost.

High pressure will probably become more influential across the UK during this period. This means an increasing incidence of dry weather compared to the winter so far. Spells of rain and strong winds remain possible, these most likely in the north with a risk of some snow at times. Temperatures are expected to be close to normal overall.
