Turning colder nationwide, with snow, ice and overnight frosts for some.
Read moreScattered wintry showers north and west.
Dry and cold with clear spells for most to start the night, but wintry showers in the far north giving a risk of icy surfaces. Snow, soon turning to rain, spreads east later in the night. Minimum temperature -4 °C.
Rain and sleet will continue to spread east, falling as snow over higher ground. This will turn to frequent snow showers later, mainly across the north and the Isles. Maximum temperature 4 °C.
Snow showers will continue into Thursday morning with the afternoon becoming dry and brighter. After a dry and sunny start, snow will spread east Friday before soon turning to rain.
Updated:
Atlantic weather fronts will continue to spread east bringing spells of rain, potentially quite widely. More showery conditions will likely follow but there will be some brighter spells at times. The showery conditions will likely persist for a few subsequent days, though there is some risk of Atlantic frontal systems moving in from the west at times. Temperatures will be a little below normal. A westerly dominated pattern will likely persist through to the end of November with outbreaks of rain or showers and temperatures near to or a little below normal. There could however still be some wintry showers at times in the north. Areas if low pressure may bring longer spells of rain and periods of strong winds at times.
Updated:
Whilst there is a lot of uncertainty as to the flavour of weather affecting the UK into December, there is a greater chance than normal of slower evolving weather patterns. A mixture of weather types seems most likely and so some wetter days, with widespread rain or showers and the chance of snow, mainly for higher ground in the north. Equally some drier periods are also anticipated, increasing the possibility of some frosty nights and fog. Overall, temperatures close to average are most likely, but some colder spells are also possible, especially if any prolonged settled spells develop.
