This Evening and Tonight:

A cloudy night with outbreaks of patchy rain and drizzle. The best of any drier spells in the north towards Oban and Mull. Strong winds easing overnight. Minimum temperature 2 °C.

Saturday:

A cloudy morning with occasional rain. Some drier and brighter spells in the afternoon before further heavier rain spreads northwards later. Winds becoming mostly light. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Bands of showers or longer spells of rain will pass north during this period. These will be interspersed with dry and occasionally brighter spells at times, especially on Monday.

Predominantly cyclonic patterns are expected to dominate the UK. The early part of this period could see colder conditions becoming established more widely for a time, bringing with it the likelihood of some snow. Milder and wetter weather may however hang on in the far south. By the end of this period, the track of Atlantic depressions may shift a little further north than during the last few weeks. This will maintain broadly unsettled weather, with further spells of rain and perhaps strong winds at times. Many parts may become somewhat milder, given more of a westerly influence, though there remains the chance that colder conditions could linger towards the northeast.

Broadly changeable conditions are expected across the UK during this period. Low pressure systems will probably dominate, meaning showers or longer spells of rain, heavy at times, for much of the UK, and still the chance of some hill snow in the north. Some drier interludes are likely, though it must be said, flooding impacts remain possible given recent very wet weather. Windy conditions look probable from time to time. Temperatures probably close to or a little above average overall, with a reduced chance, compared to earlier thinking, of a late season prolonged cold spell.
