UK long range weather forecast
High pressure is likely to lie close to southern UK initially, with generally settled conditions prevailing across the south. Cloud amounts will be variable and often large, with some fog developing under clearer spells, especially in the south. Frontal systems will spread from the northwest of the UK, bringing some rain and windier conditions here. These spreading further south at times with windier conditions and frontal bands of rain making more progress across the whole of the UK from next week with the potential for deeper lows with stronger winds to approach the UK. Temperatures are likely to be generally a little above average, falling to around average into next week, though the south or east may see the odd rather cold start under clear skies and lighter winds.
Updated:
A dominant flow from the Atlantic drives an unsettled, milder and windier than average period. This likely leading to bands of rain and periods of stronger winds at times, however the potential for brief cold northerly spells remains following any deep lows crossing the region, though these brief before a milder westerly likely returns.
