South West England weather forecast

Headline:

Milder, but often wet today with flooding possible in places.

Today:

Showery outbreaks of rain today, this heavy in places, giving some localised flooding. Some drier spells though, and perhaps turning sunnier in west Cornwall later. Breezy at times, with especially strong winds in Cornwall. Temperatures around average, but feeling chilly. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Tonight:

Further showers in places this evening and overnight, especially in eastern counties. Clearer spells are possible, mainly in the west. Feeling chilly, but generally windy and therefore staying frost free. Minimum temperature 3 °C.

Tuesday:

Occasional showers, especially in the morning, these locally heavy perhaps. The cloud gradually breaking though to give sunny spells, especially in the west. Winds easing, but still feeling chilly. Maximum temperature 8 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Patchy frost and fog clearing on Wednesday leaving some sunshine. Rain gradually arriving from the southwest, turning heavy in places. Milder, wetter and much windier to end the week.

Updated:

UK long range weather forecast

A transition to milder, wetter and windier conditions is likely to have spread to most of the country by Friday. By this time the main chance of any snow becomes more restricted to high ground in the north. However, the change in conditions may take until the weekend to reach the far northeast with wintry showers remaining possible here. Thereafter, a continuation of generally unsettled conditions is most likely through mid-December with spells of heavy rain and strong winds for most areas at times. Temperatures are most likely to be around average though with some milder spells, more especially in the south. Colder interludes remain possible but likely shorter-lived than the current period and probably more restricted to the north.

Updated:

Conditions are most likely to be changeable through this period. Wetter and windier than average conditions are slightly more likely than normal, especially in the west and northwest. Temperatures are most likely to be near or above average overall, especially in the south and west. It is possible that there will be further colder interludes, but these likely to be short lived at first. Perhaps a greater chance of a longer cold spell late in the period.
