Met office update
UK Outlook for Thursday 30 Nov 2017 to Saturday 9 Dec 2017:
As we end November and move into the start of December, conditions look set to remain fairly similar, with a mixture of sunny spells and showers. Cold, crisp sunshine will be prevalent throughout, but with showers for some; these mainly affecting exposed northern and eastern parts, especially the North Sea coasts, but not exclusively. The showers will be heavy at times and wintry too, with any snow accumulations most likely over higher ground, but perhaps to some lower levels at times in the north. Staying rather cold throughout, with overnight frosts and temperatures generally below the average. However, there is a chance of less cold, cloudier weather spreading southeastwards, with some rain at times, particularly later in the period, which would likely see temperatures recover closer to average.
UK Outlook for Saturday 9 Dec 2017 to Saturday 23 Dec 2017:
During this period of December, it looks likely that the cold conditions may persist across the United Kingdom, with a generally blocked and slow-moving weather pattern, which brings more uncertainty than normal into the forecast. We are likely to see a mixture of sunshine and showers for many, with the showers turning increasingly wintry, mainly over the hills, but not exclusively. Temperatures will probably be below the average through to mid-December. However, there is the chance of periods of milder, wetter and windier weather, with increased amounts of rainfall, during the middle of the month, especially in the west. This could see temperatures recover closer to the average.
