Turning wet and windy in the north and west.
Winds strengthening in the west and cloud thickens as rain approaches later in the evening. Remaining wet and windy across some northwestern parts overnight. Elsewhere dry and clear with some fog and frosty patches, mainly in the southeast.
A cloudy and breezy start for many. Patchy rain at first but turning more persistent for western parts during the evening. Milder with snow melting at low levels.
Mild, wet and windy through the weekend and into next week. Gales or severe gales likely on Sunday as Storm Isha moves in. Locally heavy outbreaks of rain at times.
Updated:
Remaining very unsettled through the second half of next week, with further spells of rain and strong winds for most regions, although perhaps not as severe as earlier in the week. The heaviest and most frequent spells of rain and showers are likely to be in the west, with eastern areas often drier and brighter. By next weekend, high pressure is likely to become more dominant, especially across the south bringing mostly dry and bright conditions here with an increase in the likelihood of overnight fog patches. Further north, rain and strong winds are likely at times, but there should also be some drier interludes. Generally mild, although there is an increased chance of night frost as conditions become more settled in the south.
Updated:
Into early February there is an increased likelihood of high pressure having greater influence on UK weather patterns. There is uncertainty in exactly where high pressure will become established but this increases the likelihood of drier conditions. There is also a greater than normal likelihood of winds from the east leading to an increased chance, compared to normal, of cold spells. Whilst a drier and colder scenario is most likely during early February, there remains a chance of some milder interludes with spells of rain and strong winds, especially across the north.
