Planning Outlook

West to southwesterly winds prevail this week and a series of frontal systems come in from the Atlantic. Rain and drizzle most frequent in west with low cloud often covering hills. Higher cloud bases and drier further eastwards. Much cooler than recently, temperatures nearer average, or lower at times in Scotland. Often windy, but by later in the week, risk of more extensive upland gales and some heavier rain as deeper areas of low pressure likely move in.
