Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

• Cold and mostly cloudy through this period, with rain or showers at times, these sometimes wintry especially on higher ground
• Occasionally windy, accentuating the cold feel

UK Day 6-7 and week 2

• High pressure is expected to be slow moving and centred to the northeast of the UK at the start of this period
• As a result, east or southeasterly winds will dominate, these bringing below-normal temperatures across the UK from mainland Europe
• Some rain and hill snow is likely at times, particularly across the east of the UK, with the best of any sunny periods probably in the west
• It will be breezy around coasts, but the risk of any very strong winds is low
• During the second half of this period, a change to milder and more unsettled conditions will probably begin to occur
• Exactly how this manifests is uncertain, but there will be an increasing chance of rain and strong winds spreading from the Atlantic across the UK

UK Week 3 and 4

• A mobile pattern, will probably have become established by this time, with weather systems moving close to or across the UK from the Atlantic
• This will mean bands of rain and perhaps periods of strong winds spreading in from the west, interspersed with some drier and brighter interludes
• Temperatures are most likely to be close to average overall
