Meto Uk Further Outlook

[Stuart]

UK Outlook for Friday 5 Dec 2014 to Sunday 14 Dec 2014:

A band of cloud and rain will push southeastwards on Friday, weakening as it does so. An incursion of northerly winds will follow bringing a colder, but brighter, airmass southwards with sunny periods and scattered showers, these mainly affecting windward coasts and wintry across the hills. The showers will ease into the weekend, as pressure builds from the west bringing sunny periods by day and more widespread frost, with perhaps some fog patches, by night. Into the following week, the most likely scenario is for pressure to remain higher in the south bringing the best of the drier conditions here with some overnight frost and fog. However, northwestern parts may see some spells of rain and stronger winds, which may extend further southeast at times, interspersed by colder, showery conditions.

UK Outlook for Monday 15 Dec 2014 to Monday 29 Dec 2014:

There is no strong signal in weather patterns during this period. However, the most likely scenario is a trend towards more unsettled and, at times, windy weather, especially in western parts of the UK, with eastern parts seeing the best of any dry weather. Temperatures are generally expected to be around average for the time of year, but some colder incursions are likely between weather systems. There is a chance of some overnight and morning frost and fog in places and also some snow on higher ground in the north during any temporary colder incursions from the northwest.

UK Outlook for Saturday 6 Dec 2014 to Monday 15 Dec 2014:

A bright, cold and frosty start likely for many on Saturday, but chance then of showers, wintry over hills, for some. Milder, cloudier conditions then spread from the west, with outbreaks of rain and drizzle. Clearer, showery conditions follow. Windy at times with risk of gales in the north. Thereafter, conditions next week are likely to be generally unsettled, with spells of cloudy weather interspersed with clearer, showery periods. Some heavy rain at times in the north and west, where showers could be wintry at times. The best of any drier weather will be in the south. This north/south divide looks likely to become more pronounced later in the period. Temperatures generally near or just above average during cloudier spells, and a little below in clearer spells with frosty nights

UK Outlook for Monday 8 Dec 2014 to Wednesday 17 Dec 2014:

It will stay unsettled and often windy with persistent rain moving east across many areas at the start of the week, quickly followed by showery conditions. The showers will be heavy and blustery at times and may turn wintry too, mainly over northern hills although with the risk that these may reach lower levels at times. More persistent rain will spread again across UK later next week. Temperatures will be near or just below average in the south/east. However, it will be rather cold in the north/west where it will be particularly windy with gales in exposure. The unsettled and windy weather should persist through next weekend and into the following week. Cloudy periods with rain and around average temperatures will be interspersed with clearer, colder and showery weather.

[Stuart]

UK Outlook for Thursday 11 Dec 2014 to Saturday 20 Dec 2014:

Very windy on Thursday and Friday with sunshine and showers, and perhaps more persistent rain in the south later. Showers will be heavy and most frequent in the north and west with snow over hills, and perhaps wintry to low levels occasionally. Strong to gale force northwesterly winds, severe in exposed parts of the west and northwest, will make it feel bitter in already cold temperatures. These cold, showery and windy conditions will likely continue into the weekend, with any persistent rain and somewhat milder temperatures in the south clearing. The following week is expected to remain unsettled. Periods of rain and strong winds with temperatures near average, will likely be interspersed with clearer, colder conditions with showers, these often wintry over higher ground, and overnight frosts where skies clear.

UK Outlook for Sunday 21 Dec 2014 to Sunday 4 Jan 2015:

The rest of December through into the first few days of the New Year will most likely stay unsettled and often windy with weather systems arriving from the west or northwest. It is likely that the UK will see cloudy periods with spells of rain, but that these will probably be interspersed by clearer and colder conditions with showers, which turn wintry over northern hills. The most unsettled conditions are likely in the north and west, whilst there may be more in the way of dry and settled spells of weather across the south and east at times. Temperatures will likely be around, or slightly above, average for the time of year but still with overnight frosts, particularly over the north.

UK Outlook for Sunday 14 Dec 2014 to Tuesday 23 Dec 2014:

It will be a cold to start to Sunday in the east where a frost is likely. Wet and windy weather in the west, perhaps with snow at first over the high ground in the north, should spread across the UK with temperatures gradually rising. The heaviest rain and strongest winds should be expected in the west. This then likely to clear by Monday to colder, and showery conditions with temperatures falling below normal. From then on, conditions should remain unsettled with periods of rain and strong winds, interspersed with clearer, colder conditions with showers, these wintry at times, perhaps even to low levels. There will be large differences in day to day temperatures dependant on each days weather, but perhaps averaging out slightly below normal.

Nice to see the met office say colder weather in new years in their extended outlook.

[Stuart]

UK Outlook for Monday 15 Dec 2014 to Wednesday 24 Dec 2014:

Cold and clear with dry and sunny conditions expected for many parts on Monday. However, there will be showery conditions following onto exposed northwestern coasts. Cloud and winds will then increase from the west with rain, and hill snow running along the leading edge, spreading into the far west later in the day. Through the rest of the week and in the run up to Christmas, conditions should remain unsettled with periods of rain and strong winds, interspersed with clearer, colder conditions with showers, these wintry at times, perhaps even to low levels in the north. There will be large differences in day to day temperatures dependant on each days weather, but perhaps averaging out slightly below normal.

should please the coldies but why do they not use a spell check? Also happens on their regionals.

[Spah1]

Grammar terrible! Cold prospects interesting!

[damianslaw]

Its not often the Met Office suggest colder than average.. there must be enough strong signals for them to say this. I remember how it was roughly about 2 and half weeks before the cold spell of late Nov 2010 that they mentioned signs of a colder outlook - importantly they stuck with this through every other update, will be interesting to see if they stick with the same outlook over the next 7 days..

A s[ell checker won't find gramatical errors such as the ones made. Run the text through an MS product and see "No errors".

It is certainly more about applying a human check before release!

UK Outlook for Wednesday 17 Dec 2014 to Friday 26 Dec 2014:

Cold and showery weather at first, at least across the northern half of the UK, with sleet or snow showers and the risk of icy stretches. Cloud and outbreaks of rain further south should clear later Thursday. It will be generally windy, with gales in the north and northeast of the UK, and it will stay cold for most. It is expected to stay windy with showers into the weekend, turning wintry over northern hills and mountains. Drier weather should develop over parts of southern Britain, with some bright or sunny spells, but it is likely to remain windy with showers or longer spells of rain across the north. Temperatures should remain a little below normal with overnight frost in places. Little overall change is expected into the next week.

UK Outlook for Saturday 27 Dec 2014 to Saturday 10 Jan 2015:

The end of December will most likely stay changeable and often windy with weather systems arriving from the west or northwest. It is likely that the UK will see cloudy periods with spells of rain, but that these will probably be interspersed by clearer and colder conditions with showers, which could turn wintry at times, mainly in the north.

Wording changed today temperatures varying day by day is the most likely scenario, however there is the risk that a more prolonged cold spell could develop

 

UK Outlook for Sunday 28 Dec 2014 to Sunday 11 Jan 2015:

 

The end of December is likely to stay changeable and often windy with weather systems arriving from the west or northwest. This will bring cloudy periods with spells of rain, interspersed with clearer and transient cold interludes. These could include wintry showers, mainly in the north. The more unsettled conditions are likely to be in the north and west, with the best of the sunshine in the south and east. Temperatures are likely to vary day by day, but tending to average out to be around, or just below normal. This is the most likely scenario throughout the period until mid January, however there is the risk that a more prolonged cold spell could develop from early January.

UK Outlook for Thursday 18 Dec 2014 to Saturday 27 Dec 2014:

Rain across the south should clear during Thursday leaving a generally bright but cold afternoon. However showers are likely to feed into some western parts, with snow across northern hills, perhaps briefly to some lower levels in the far north. Also windy, with coastal gales, occasionally severe in the north. Showery conditions persist into Friday, with showers most frequent across northern and some coastal areas, before fading away into the weekend. However cloud and rain is then likely to push into Scotland Saturday, before spreading south and bringing a period of milder and wetter weather to many. This pattern of colder and showery conditions, with milder and wetter spells, then continues next week. Temperatures will therefore vary day by day, although averaging out to be near or just below normal.

not sure when you post the actual words SS why you feel the need to make your own summary?

Reading back through these, you have to admit they are consistent with their approach.
