Walks from Ambleside walk

Mostly sunny today. Cloudier, colder, and showery this coming week.

Today:

Sunday will be dry and after a chilly start most areas will have plenty of sunshine. However, patches of low cloud and hill fog are possible over the Pennines. It will feel colder than of late in the southeasterly breeze. Maximum Temperature 11C.

Tonight:

There will be clear periods this evening, giving a patchy frost. However, cloud will increase from the east overnight, lifting the temperature and bringing the odd spot of rain later. Minimum Temperature 1C.

Monday:

There will be variable, often large amounts of cloud. Occasional sunny spells are likely, along with one or two light showers. It will be cold, with an easterly breeze. Maximum Temperature 10C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

It will be rather unsettled, breezy and cold. There will be some sunshine, although it often looks cloudy with showers developing at times. Some hill snow, and icy patches overnight.

Day 6 to 15

Throughout this period, the winds look likely to blow in from the east, across continental Europe. This will often bring cloudy skies, with the best of any sunshine in western areas. There is also the likelihood of some showers, these most frequent in eastern parts, but perhaps becoming more widespread and persistent at times. With a chill in the air, there is scope for some sleet or snow, but this will most likely be restricted to the hills. The breeze will make for a marked wind chill at times in the south. With lighter winds further north, and under clear skies at night, overnight frosts are likely to become more common. There is also a small chance of even colder conditions going into early December, in northerly winds.

Day 16 to 30

Through this period, there may be a continuation of the cold and mainly settled conditions for much of the UK, with some showers coming in from the east. However, there is a chance that during early December the weather pattern may change, with fronts moving in from the west across the Atlantic. This would bring longer spells of rain, interspersed with brighter, showery interludes, and it would also become less cold. However, even if the change does happen, it won't be long before we have more settled conditions again, perhaps by the middle of December. This would mean a return to the colder conditions with overnight frost and fog.
