Could turn quite widely to snow, even to lower levels from the North Midlands Northwards. We have to remember that the heavier the preciptation, the more it lowers the temperature beneath the cloud. Hence why heavy rain is much more likely to turn to snow than light rain at the same surface temperature.
Temperature 0.6 deg C at Harpur Hill Buxton, falling, 1.8 mm rainfall so far. |

Yep, which is why I said "and the heavier precipitation hasn't yet arrived". Snow now in Buxton market place, covering cars and some footpaths and it's recently increased to moderate intensity on the radar. They'll have a full snow cover by midnight.

From the webcams, there is full snow cover now up at Flash, and the Cat, near Buxton. Looks like sleet in Buxton town centre and the heavier precipitation hasn't yet arrived.

normal service is being resumed.... atlantic systems with periods of wind and rain, some milder days, some sun,but later next week it becomes much cooler as the azores high loses its influence and the uk becomes under the dominance of a large upper trough to our north.
becoming much colder and fresher in a breezy, showery regime and the showers will be wintry on northern hills. if the anomaly charts prove correct.

The Met Office website forecasts the same range of daily maxima next week as for the last two days here (10 to 13 deg C). Rain is only forecast for tomorrow, nothing thereafter before Friday anyway. S Hants. I wonder how it will turn out.
the fax charts suggest a series of frontal systems crossing the country, but just how potent theyll be isnt easy to tell and the south will be drier then the north, as usual. |

Ah yes... The Sea God of the Atlantic has come to our rescue from the cold and miserable weather once more... Knew it would happen sooner or later... ![]() Atlantic Weather, one of my favourite kinds of weather, nice and cool in Summer and lovely and mild in Winter.. ![]() Looks like we're finally getting some boring Atlantic Dross weather next week, with periods of rain and patchy drizzle, boring thick cloud, south westerly winds and temperatures around 10-14C widely across the UK. Perfect. ![]() I would probably love living on the Iles of Scilly. Looking at the Weather there, it always seems to be the same weather there all the time, with very little difference in temperature between day or night and summer or winter. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/6943071 |

i dont get it, are you trying to be ironic here? one minute you say you like atlantic weather the next you describe it as 'dross'... which isnt a term of endearment.

Looking forward to a couple, or maybe three mild South Westerly days !!! But even Maritime Polar is basically OK. |

Well one thing I can say with absolute certainty, Atlantic weather is anything but dross to me. I much prefer it to an Easterly regime, in Winter especially.

But even Maritime Polar is basically OK. interestingly though, this mornings anomaly charts are tentatively hinting that the mean upper trough for later this week might actually track southwards as a second low sinks southeastwards from greenland... although initially it might pick up something milder again (in just over a weeks time) low to our south means we are at risk of an easterly in about 2 weeks time. but that is a very tentative suggested evolution. |

Why only 2 or 3 days?? There is absolutely no reason why we could not get predominately South-Westerly winds all this Winter, or all year round for that matter.
an easterly later next week is looking more likely as the anomaly charts are firming up on a mean upper trough to our south, high in the mid atlantic and scandinavia. |

Mild, Overcast, Gloomy, Damp and Drizzly is the regime here today. Max Temperature here 12C.
I'm steaming the Xmas Puds and the weather actually feels quite Christmassy as that is the weather we usually get at Christmas time nowadays. That said, you can get the same conditions at any time of year these days. Not had a white Christmas here for at least 10 years now. Last year on Christmas Day I remember we had the lights on all day and the streetlights came on at 3pm as it was so gloomy. This weather does feel much more like Autumn than what we've had most of this November so far. That brief snow/sleet we had last week was the earliest I've ever seen any Wintery Showers even if it didn't stick.. |

Looking at the rain map of the UK today there isn't much rain about but looking at the BBC Weather website, the visibility here is very poor (hill fog) and the humidity is at or almost at 100% which is causing constant fine drizzle. I remember the same conditions in Whitby when I visited a couple of months ago. Though Whitby commonly has fog coming in from the sea when other places don't and of course Lancashire is a very damp county so it has to be expected really, especially with a South Westerly airflow.

![]() http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2655984 Only 11C here at the moment. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2652819 Like us though you are getting a lot colder later in the week so make the most of it... At least you are looking a little dryer than us though. |

A nice pleasant morning today. The rain and the cloud has cleared and the sun is out and it's a balmy 11c outside. Feels very mild for November.
Staying mild tonight with temperatures dropping no lower than 8c. Once Wednesday comes though it deteriorates sharply with heavy blustery showers and temperatures back into single digits Wednesday Thursday. |
