Luzley Brook (Greater Manchester) weather

Headline:

Cloudy with patchy rain and drizzle in places.

Today:

A rather grey morning with hill fog lingering across the Pennines. Persistent light rain lingers in the southwest, whilst low cloud brings patchy drizzle across the high ground of Cumbria. Light winds, but feeling cool with any brighter breaks short-lived. Maximum temperature 6 °C.

Tonight:

Cloudy for many with scattered showers spreading in from the west. Clearer skies in the north, allowing mist and fog to form readily overnight. Feeling chilly with a rural frost. Minimum temperature 0 °C.

Wednesday:

A cloudy morning with scattered showers clearing eastwards. Some brighter breaks developing into the afternoon, though the odd spot of rain still possible at times. Maximum temperature 5 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Turning wet and increasingly windy. Persistent rain, heavy at times spreads eastwards through Thursday and Friday. Frequent, blustery showers to follow on Saturday, though some brighter breaks too.

This looks like being and unsettled period across much of the country, but especially for northern and western parts. During Sunday and into Monday, another deep area of low pressure looks likely to move across the UK from the Atlantic, bringing wet and windy conditions to most if not all parts. Further spells of wet and windy weather look like moving east from the Atlantic to affect the UK during the rest of the period too, with drier, brighter spells in between. There is the potential for further weather warnings or even a named storm at some point. Temperatures overall are likely to end up being around or slightly above average, though wind and rain will make it feel chilly, and brief cool spells are likely between weather systems.

Generally mild at first, with periods of rain, showers and strong winds alternating with short-lived brighter and cooler interludes. With time, these may become increasingly confined to northern parts, with pressure possibly building across southern areas. This would result in longer drier and more-settled spells here, albeit with an increased chance of overnight fog and frost with temperatures falling correspondingly.
