New Romney (Kent) weather

Headline:

Early fog replaced by cloud and rain moving slowly northwards.

Today:

Brightest in the southeast first thing, becoming breezy here in advance of cloud and periods of rain making very gradual progress northwards. These more unsettled conditions will very gradually displace extensive low cloud and fog in northern parts. Near-normal temperatures. Maximum temperature 11 °C.

Tonight:

Cloudy and wet during the evening and overnight, with a swathe of rain moving very slowly northwards before stalling over the region, with some heavier spells possible. Minimum temperature 6 °C.

Wednesday:

A wet start with some heavier spells of rain. Both the cloud and the rain will very gradually fade, to perhaps leave some late brighter spells. Temperatures near normal. Maximum temperature 11 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Breezy at first Thursday, but becoming drier and eventually brighter into the weekend as temperatures fall away, with overnight frosts developing widely.

High pressure will initially dominate, with widely settled conditions and overnight frost. Some showers are likely in northern and western Scotland though, and perhaps along some other western coasts for a time. Later in the weekend, a transition to more unsettled conditions is expected as bands of rain, and associated areas of low pressure, arrive from the North Atlantic, bringing more widespread wet and windy weather. It is likely to remain fairly changeable through the remainder of the period, with occasional rain interspersed with brighter, showery spells. Whilst colder conditions will be possible at times, especially at first, it will often be mild, with temperatures near or a little above average for the time of year.

Changeable or unsettled conditions are expected through late November and into early December, as Atlantic frontal systems track close to or across the UK at times. These will bring periods of rain and strong winds, perhaps with some snow in the north, mainly over hills, interspersed with brighter, more showery interludes. Temperatures will often be mild, particularly away from the far north where brief colder interludes are possible. Although confidence is low, there may be a tendency for the track of low pressure systems to shift southwards later in the period. In this scenario, rain will still be likely at times, especially across central and southern parts of the UK, while more northern areas may become somewhat drier, and all parts may become somewhat colder.
