Balmedie (Aberdeenshire) weather

Headline:

Thursday dry for much day but rain, hill snow later.

This Evening and Tonight:

This evening will be dry and cold with frost returning. Then the rest of the night will be dry with clear periods and some fog patches. Light winds. Minimum temperature -2 °C.

Thursday:

Most of the day will be dry with some sunshine. Outbreaks of rain and hill snow will spread from the southwest later in the afternoon, clearing in the evening. Maximum temperature 6 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Widespread rain and snow at first on Friday, very windy, severe gales for a time later. Sunny spells, scattered wintry showers on Saturday. Further rain and strong winds later Sunday.

This looks like being and unsettled period across much of the country, but especially for northern and western parts. During 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 with some overnight frost 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. These may become increasingly confined to northern parts during this period though, with pressure possibly building across southern areas in particular. This would result in longer drier and more-settled spells here, albeit with an increased chance of overnight fog and frost and temperatures falling a little correspondingly.
