Papa Westray Airfield weather map
View the weather with our interactive map
Dry, cloudy morning, heavy afternoon rain then showers Friday.
It will remain cloudy through the evening and overnight with the odd spot of drizzle possible, mainly over Shetland. West to southwesterly winds strengthen overnight. Minimum temperature 9 °C.
Cloudy but mainly dry through the morning, patchy light rain possible. Heavy rain for a time in the afternoon. Then colder with clear spells and showers. West or southwest gales. Maximum temperature 12 °C.
Turning colder with blustery showers, increasingly wintry later Sunday and Monday, and westerly gales, becoming northerly on Sunday.
Updated:
Cold or very cold conditions are likely to affect most if not all parts of the UK early in this period, with wintry showers affecting in particular northern parts and exposed coastal districts. Overnight frost will likely be widespread and occasionally strong winds will result in significant wind chill. However, there may be more organised areas of rain and snow, accompanied by strong winds, which run across some parts. This could lead to some disruptive weather at times, especially at the start of this period. Briefly milder conditions may accompany these in the south. There is a hint that it may become less cold late in the period, but still likely remain mostly unsettled with further spells of rain and snow.
Updated:
Signals vary in prevailing weather patterns through this period. In general, there looks like a trend towards drier and more settled conditions, with high pressure potentially being the more dominant influence over the UK. However. there is a chance of more changeable weather patterns at times, which would see Atlantic weather systems periodically move across the country. These will bring some wetter and windier interludes with a risk of some snow, especially for hills in the north. Temperatures trending closer to average, especially in the south.
