Thursday:

Rather cloudy with still some patchy light rain, mostly near to the West Coast. Drier and brighter over Caithness and around Inverness. Another mild day with a light southerly breeze. Maximum temperature 15 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

A changeable few days with some showers or even longer spells of rain, mostly in west. Drier, brighter spells too, best towards Inverness and Caithness. Breezy at times.

The start of this period is likely to be largely unsettled and mostly mild, with bands or areas of rain moving across most parts of the UK, although tending to be focused more on western and possibly southern parts. Locally strong winds may also accompany some of the rain. Some drier spells are also likely, the best of these probably towards the east and possibly the north. Where skies are clear and winds light overnight, frost and fog are likely, the fog slow to clear. From around the middle of the month, we may see a transition towards more generally drier weather across the UK, and with this it is likely to turn a little cooler overall, with a greater risk of overnight frost.

A greater chance of periods of high pressure bringing more in the way of dry weather, compared to the current weather pattern, which also increases the chances of overnight fog and frost. There will most likely however still be periods of rain, showers, and stronger winds, especially in the west. Weather patterns are very uncertain during late November. Overall, near or above average temperatures are most likely though some colder spells are possible, especially should any prolonged settled spells develop.
