Northerly, 15 to 20mph, generally strongest east of the M74.
Fairly small
Showers, mainly afternoon
Risk of a few showers from dawn. From late morning or midday, a scattering of brief showers more widely, giving hail on higher tops.
Mostly very little
Cloud base mostly above the summits, but patches may cap higher tops occasionally, most common Cheviots in the morning.
90%
Patchwork of sun, but cloud filling in by afternoon. Visibility excellent.
2C rising to 5 to 7C, coolest Cheviots. Wind chill will make it feel as cold as -7C on eastern tops in the morning.
Above the summits, but only just above freezing on The Cheviot early and late in the day.

Direction may well vary, mostly less than 15mph, perhaps calm on some summits. But locally gusts 25mph in precipitation.
Mostly negligible, although temporary sudden buffeting near precipitation in the afternoon.
Areas of heavy precipitation developing
Risk patches of rain from dawn, perhaps sleet on highest tops. Will deteriorate from later morning as showery rain becomes widespread and heavy with risk thunder. Total rainfall very varied over a few miles.
Will form for periods in and following rain
Broadly, cloud base will rise from 550 to 800m after dawn to above highest hills by late morning. But in rain, expect fog widely on higher slopes and in some areas on lower slopes as well.
60%
Patches of sunshine will tend to give way to occasional bursts of sun. Often excellent visibility but poor in rain.
5C.
Above the summits, but slight frost at first some valleys and upland dips.
Relatively low temperatures on the mountains much of next week; particularly on the Scottish highlands where higher tops will frequently be near freezing point. Showers, some heavy and thundery, giving hail and on higher tops snow, will be widespread, particularly in the afternoons, when in some areas they will merge to give a few hours of precipitation.
