A damp atmosphere shrouds most west coastal hills in fog to lower slopes in morning. Some breaks forming for England, Wales & eastern Scotland. Rain heavier in middle of the day in western Scotland, spreading later to NW England and N Wales.
A little rain, often dry. Cloud breaking toward most tops.
Northwest turning westerly 10 to 20mph, tending to strengthen through day, reaching 20-25mph afternoon, nearer 30mph on higher N Pennines into evening, perhaps more widely by dusk.
Fairly small morning, but increasing amounts of buffeting on higher fells as the day progresses.
Mainly dry, risk a little rain
Pockets of drizzle from dawn, perhaps a local shower, otherwise many hours largely dry through the day. Up to dusk, increasing risk of rain developing from the west, to become fairly persistent after dark.
Lifting into middle of day
Western dales in Yorkshire: cloud may well at times form lower slopes up, although likely to lift and clear for periods by middle of day. Elsewhere: cloud lifting to clear most summits during morning, although patches returning near rain.
60%
Occasional sun, although western dales in Yorkshire may be dull and misty most of the day. Further east, often excellent visibility.
10C rising to 13C; then dropping toward 9C by dusk, and nearer 6C overnight.
10C at dawn, rising to 18 to 21C into afternoon, warmest in east.

Direction likely to vary, at times little wind, rarely more than 15mph.
Mostly small.
Risk lingering rain
Some uncertainty: Rain arriving in the early hours likely to persist well into the daytime, risk of steady heavy falls for a few hours. May gradually break up, but expect rain or drizzle to continue, plus the odd heavy burst.
Fairly extensive
Risk of blanket low cloud across the fells most or all day. Some breaks may occur above 600m if rain fades away for sustained periods.
20%
Generally cloudy, very murky around rain. Occasional improvements.
8 to 10C
13 to 19C, coolest where rain lingers.

Easterly 15 to 20mph.
Fairly small
Patchy drizzle mostly east
Drizzly rain may come and go through the day on the eastern side of the Pennines, but western Yorks Dales may see very little.
May persist above eastern dales
Risk of low cloud covering the hills for several hours, particularly eastern areas. Gradually cloud bases lifting toward higher slopes, with breaks to the tops in the west.
50%
Risk of low cloud and dull conditions for several hours, particularly eastern Pennines. Further west, occasional sun developing, visibility may be very good.
9C rising to 12C.
Below 10C at dawn, rising to 17 to 20C afternoon.
Low pressure drifts slowly southwards across Britain through Friday into the weekend, followed by improving conditions from the north as pressure builds. Residual areas of rain, drizzle and low cloud may affect Wales, the Pennines and perhaps eastern Scotland through the weekend, whilst west & northwest Scotland become fine and increasingly warm. Most indications favour high pressure influencing Britain into next week, bringing mainly dry and warm weather. Despite some rain this week, most mountain areas will remain very dry underfoot: beware of the risk of fire.
