North Face Mountain Bike Trail (Cumbria) weather

Headline:

Rain arriving later today.

Today:

Windy at first, however winds will gradually ease through the day. Sunny spells and just a few showers to start the day, but a heavier spell of rain arrives in the afternoon. Temperatures above average for January. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Tonight:

Rain clearing to the east this evening, followed by clear spells and showers. Remaining breezy and mild as frost free as a result. Minimum temperature 5 °C.

Tuesday:

Cloud and rain quickly spills in through the morning, with some heavy and prolonged downpours at times. Another mild day but turning colder in the evening. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Less cold than of late, with periods of heavy showers or longer spells of rain. Winds will strengthen at times, though there will also be some occasional brighter interludes.

It will likely remain changeable and at times unsettled for the UK as a whole through this period. Further areas of low pressure moving in from the Atlantic will tend to dominate, meaning showers or longer spells of rain for many parts. Wet weather will more likely be most prevalent across western areas, though given the potential for low pressure systems to become slow-moving in the vicinity of the UK, heavy rain is possible anywhere at times. Periods of windy weather are also possible from time to time. Temperatures probably near normal overall, though the possibility for some colder spells in the north, with the potential for associated winter hazards, and occasional milder interludes further south.

Low pressure is likely to continue to dominate the UK, at least at first, meaning an ongoing likelihood of further spells of rain and windy conditions from time to time. That said there should also be some brief interludes of drier weather too. Temperatures probably remaining close to average, particularly in the south, but there is the possibility of colder conditions, associated with higher pressure extending from the north or northeast, returning to northern areas around the turn of the month.
