Saintfield (County Down) weather

Headline:

Mostly cloudy but many places dry

Today:

A mostly cloudy day with a little drizzle at times, the best of any brighter spells expected across the north around the middle of the day. Outbreaks of rain may reach the far west during the late afternoon. Southeasterly breeze. Maximum temperature 14 °C.

Tonight:

Cloudy through the evening with outbreaks of rain becoming patchier as they spread east. Some clear spells may develop for a time overnight but cloud increases again towards dawn. Mild. Minimum temperature 9 °C.

Wednesday:

Mostly cloudy but largely dry, perhaps the odd spot of drizzle over the hills. Once again the north has the best chance of seeing some brighter or sunnier spells. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Remaining mild or very mild and cloudy through into the weekend with, especially on Friday and Saturday, occasional rain. Occasionally fresh southerly or southeasterly breeze.

Mainly cloudy with some patchy light rain and drizzle moving southeast on Saturday morning. Sunny spells will develop to the west of this, although further rain will probably reach some parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland by the end of the day. This rain will spread southeast through Sunday while becoming increasingly light and patchy. Into the following week, a good deal of settled weather across the UK as high pressure builds back in. Most places should be dry, although some patchy light rain or drizzle could affect the far north at times. Light winds may allow overnight fog to form, this slow to clear during the day. Temperatures will probably be above average overall, although with some cold nights possible. By mid-month, possibly turning a little more unsettled.

Probably an unsettled spell for a time at the start of this period with some wet and maybe windy weather for parts of the UK, more so in central and southern areas. Low confidence by late November and early December, with uncertainty whether unsettled, wetter weather or drier and more settled conditions will dominate. Temperatures will probably be close to or above average overall, although some colder interludes are possible, especially in the north.
