Met office update
UK Outlook for Wednesday 6 Dec 2017 to Friday 15 Dec 2017:
On Wednesday and Thursday an unsettled spell of weather is likely for many areas, with strong winds and rain moving eastwards. However, it may remain largely dry in the far southeast. Towards the end of the week the rain is expected to clear away with brighter, colder conditions then following into the north with wintry showers. However, further unsettled weather is probable over the weekend and into next week with rain and strong winds arriving in the northwest and moving across many areas. Towards the end of this period weather patterns are expected to become slow moving bringing a mixture of colder drier periods and short lived milder, wetter, windier interludes. Snow is possible at times, especially across high ground in the north.
UK Outlook for Saturday 16 Dec 2017 to Saturday 30 Dec 2017:
There is low confidence regarding which weather pattern is likely to prevail as we look ahead towards the end of December. The UK could remain in a battle ground between wetter and milder conditions pushing in from the south and west and colder, drier conditions which will be to the north and east of the British Isles. Slow moving weather systems are the most likely scenario, which will deliver a mixture of colder, drier periods with some short lived milder, wetter and windier interludes, especially across western parts. Snow is likely at times, especially across the north.
