Storm Goretti brings heavy rain and strong winds.
Early bright spells give way to increasingly unsettled conditions from the southwest as Storm Goretti arrives, bringing heavy rain, hill snow, strong winds, and severe coastal gales in places. Milder. Maximum temperature 10 °C.
Unsettled with heavy rain and hill snow continuing this evening. Snow becoming more widespread through the night and reaching down to lower levels in the east. Gales continuing. Minimum temperature 1 °C.
Early rain, sleet and hill snow associated with Storm Goretti soon clearing eastwards, leaving largely cloudy skies and showers behind, some of these wintry over the Moors. Staying blustery. Maximum temperature 8 °C.
A cold weekend with overnight frost. Mostly dry and bright on Saturday and to start on Sunday. Further rain and strong winds arriving by Sunday afternoon into Monday.
Updated:
There is now much higher confidence for milder air to overspread the UK by the start of this period with the last of the cold air of the past couple of weeks expected to clear from the extreme northeast during the course of Monday. So this period likely to see brisk southwesterly winds bringing a very different feel to the weather than of late. There will be some rain or showers at times, but also a good deal of dry weather and although often cloudy, some brighter interludes are expected, especially to the lee of high ground. The milder conditions will see temperatures widely above average, and will lead to a rapid thaw of any remaining lying snow across northern parts of Scotland.
Updated:
The outlook through the latter part of January and into the start of February is typically uncertain. A broadly southwesterly regime is marginally favoured bringing changeable conditions and spells of wet, windy and mild weather are likely, potentially with some very strong winds at times. However there is a chance that drier and colder conditions could extend into the UK from the east or northeast, along with a risk of some snow.
