Flood warnings in force for England
North West England weather forecast
Headline:
Mostly fine and chilly. Milder, but unsettled by the weekend.
Today:
The morning will get off to a frosty and icy start in places, though a fine day is in prospect. It will remain dry with plenty of sunshine, and the wind will fall light too. Feeling rather chilly though. Maximum temperature 5 °C.
Tonight:
The dry theme will continue overnight. There will be clear periods at first, and although cloud will gradually increase, with a southeasterly breeze developing, some frost is still likely. Minimum temperature -2 °C.
Wednesday:
One or two bright intervals are possible on Wednesday. However, much of the day will be cloudy and the southeasterly wind will continue to strengthen, giving quite a blustery afternoon. Maximum temperature 5 °C.
Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:
Thursday will see early frost clearing to leave plenty of sunshine and a lighter wind. Turning milder on Friday and Saturday, though with some rain, and becoming windy again.
