Northfield (West Midlands) (West Midlands Conurbation) weather

Headline:

Largely cloudy but dry overnight with some hill fog.

This Evening and Tonight:

Generally cloudy this evening and overnight and turning misty and murky in places with hill fog. Light winds and relatively mild under the cloud blanket, with any frost very localised to the east. Minimum temperature 5 °C.

Thursday:

Rather cloudy and gloomy on Thursday with mist and hill fog. Mostly dry, though the odd spot of drizzle is possible with the occasional sunny break developing. Temperatures around average. Maximum temperature 11 °C.

Outlook for Friday to Sunday:

Often cloudy on Friday with mist, fog and drizzly rain. Some rain later Saturday. More unsettled on Sunday with heavy rain or showers and stronger winds. Turning colder later.

Frequent wintry showers are expected, mainly in the north and along eastern and western coasts where exposed to the strong north to northwesterly flow. Snow is likely to fall to low levels, especially in the north. Many inland areas may be largely dry with lengthy sunny spells, especially where sheltered from the flow. However, there is a risk of some more organised areas of rain and hill snow running east across more southern parts. The chance of any widespread or disruptive snowfall affecting more populated areas at this stage remains low though. Cold everywhere with overnight frost, and the strong winds will result in significant wind chill. There is a hint that it may become less cold later in the period, with more of a westerly flow becoming established.

Signals vary in prevailing weather patterns through this period but likely mainly unsettled and rather cold for the start of the period. There is a chance of more mobile weather patterns which would see Atlantic systems periodically move across the country. These will bring some wetter and windier interludes with a risk of some snow, especially for hills of the north. A trend toward less mobile weather or more settled conditions is favoured into December, although some wetter and windier interludes remain likely at times. Temperatures also trending closer to average, especially in the south.
