United Kingdom & Ireland
Scotland It’s a cold, blustery day and shock to the system after the recent warmth. To put the sudden drop in temperature into perspective, just two days ago Inverness basked in warm 20C sunshine while today at 3pm it was only 7C. It’s windy and cold for all with heavy, frequent, squally showers, particularly across the North where […]
The very low that’s set to usher in the first true autumn chill to the UK is bringing a near white out to parts of NW Iceland this evening while further west, clear, cold high pressure has settled over Greenland in the wake of the low. That low is playing a large role in the weather across a […]
Scotland It’s a changing weather situation tonight as much colder air filters down from Iceland aboard a strengthening W and eventually NW wind. It’s a fine, bright and fairly mild end to the day across particularly eastern areas with highs near 20C in Aberdeenshire, widely 15-17C. Tonight will see winds pick up everywhere but gales will crank […]
Hope your enjoying this warmth if you like this sort of thing in October because the big change in our pattern here in the UK looms. For the past few days, a front has been gradually working south from Iceland and will cross the UK tonight and tomorrow and it’s as this front passes, so […]
Scotland This morning started off about as mild as you get in mid summer never mind early October with some places holding at 17C overnight. With the warm, muggy, sub-tropical air comes a lot of cloud, mist and drizzle. The best of today sunshine will be over Moray, Aberdeenshire and down the East Coast and it’s here […]
Well we appear to be on our way to normality with the first trough driving colder air south in the Wednesday through Friday period. This shot of chill is by no means out of the ordinary but it will ‘feel’ cold given the out of the ordinary warmth we’ve had of late. How warm has it been? […]
For those living here on the western side of Europe you may be asking where the heck is autumn or the cooler weather you would expect at this time of year, well you only have to look at the other side of the continent where it’s looking and feeling more like early winter rather than early […]
Scotland Following a damp start, today turned out not too bad with some bright or sunny spells developing through the afternoon. Rain was slow to clear from the Borders. Tonight and it’s a quite night with plenty of cloudcover, perhaps thick enough to bring some patchy rain over parts of the West Highlands overnight. All in […]
While we have very much a west-east split in the temperature profile across Europe right now with temperatures still at 17 or 18C over parts of England despite it being dark, temperatures in Moscow are now dropping below freezing for the first time this autumn. In the last 2-4 days, warm, moist southerly winds have driven […]
Scotland It’s been a dismal day across a large swath of Scotland and the persistency of today’s rain has lead to some local flooding and poor driving conditions. The rain will fall heavy across the South and Central parts early on tonight, heaviest over the Southern Uplands where an additional inch is expected. Lows once again dip no lower than […]
