Masham (North Yorkshire) weather

Headline:

Isolated mist, fog and frost clears to sunshine on Thursday.

This Evening and Tonight:

Thursday:

Any early mist, fog, or frost will quickly clear, giving way to a fine day with plenty of sunshine. Light winds will make it feel pleasantly mild. Maximum temperature 18 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Mist, fog, and frost clears Friday morning to reveal sunny spells. Cloud builds overnight and into Saturday, with rain arriving by the afternoon. Sunday returns to dry and sunny conditions.

Following a more unsettled weekend, a return to drier conditions is likely for many parts by the start of next week. A few showers or perhaps longer spells of rain remain possible for some places on Monday though, mainly in the north. Later in the week while showers or longer spells of rain are possible for all areas at times, the wettest weather is likely to be focused on the northwest of the country. Any spells of windier weather are more likely in the northwest too. Elsewhere, there is a better chance of more prolonged fine and dry weather along with morning mist and fog patches in places. Temperatures generally around average. Uncertainty then increases during early October but a similar pattern is likely to persist across the country.

On balance, slow-moving weather patterns are most favoured at first, possibly with high pressure centred near to the UK, and low pressure to the north. Depending on the position of the high pressure this may allow a slightly cooler and more changeable regime to develop, especially in the northwest. Towards mid-October a more unsettled pattern may become established as the high moves south and areas of low pressure over the North Atlantic move close to or over the UK, with an increased chance of windy conditions at times. Temperatures will probably recover to near-average.
