United Kingdom & Ireland
Scotland It’s been an unseasonably windy day across Scotland, particularly in the Northwest where gales have been blowing through the day, accompanied by some sharp, frequent and fast moving showers. Through the morning, Glasgow and much of the country was hit by downpours but these cleared late morning, allowing for a largely dry but blustery […]
Little change in my forecast for the next 7-10 days with models persistent in holding the strongest ridge of the year over the UK and Ireland throughout next week, providing the warmest temperatures yet. We just need to get through the next 36 hours of somewhat unsettled weather and then it’s all about the Azores […]
Scotland It’s a downright miserable end to a miserable day right across the country with rain continuing well into the night before eventually clearing out into the North Sea, probably not till daybreak Wednesday. Low cloud, mist and murkiness will commence Wednesday over Western and Central areas. Lows dip no lower than 10-13C. Wednesday may start damp from Aberdeen down […]
June overall averaged near normal temperature wise while it fell short in rainfall with just 52% of normal and this is likely to help provide us with the necessary soil conditions to support warmth and higher pressure into July. Models are all in excellent agreement that warmth builds along with high pressure this weekend and should […]
Scotland After an afternoon of sunshine and some showers, tonight will become cloudier with outbreaks of rain pushing into western areas with a freshening breeze. Lows near 10C. Tuesday is looking wet or very wet for all areas with a brisk southerly wind which will be gale-force along exposed coasts. Highs are cool for the time […]
Scotland After a damp, dreary and rather breezy day, conditions stay cloudy with light and patchy rain overnight. Winds ease overnight across the Western and Northern Isles after gales today. Lows dip down to around 9 or 10C widely. Monday should be a drier day with a mix of sun and cloud but staying fairly cool […]
Last spring saw water temperatures VERY warm surrounding the British Isles after record warmth in March and with the help of the very warm North Atlantic and cold Pacific as well as the onset of a weak Nino, the pattern was primed for soaking rains and a washout summer. This time around, we’ve seen far […]
Scotland After a largely cloudy but mild and slightly muggy Saturday, it should remain cloudy tonight and later in the night, an area of light and patchy rain will push into the West. Lows tonight should dip no lower than 10-13C. Sunday will be damp and grey for the West and Central areas but it may […]
A few folks out there are beginning to jump on the GFS with a hint of real warmth around July 6-10th and thought Id take a closer look myself. I indeed have been watching the longer range models but have held off until I’ve been more certain as I would rather deliver a forecast that I am committed and […]
