Another still day with rather a lot of cloud, mist and fog patches. Some light rain and drizzle affecting northern England this morning. Brighter through Scotland. #weather #ukweather #ukfarming

Forecast visibility from high resolution UK Met Office model (UKV 2km) showing dense fog extending into the Midlands Sunday morning, mostly clear by midday although cloud reducing visibility as it covers hills in eastern and southern Scotland.

High pressure brings a quiet Friday to most of us. Fog is being reported this morning over much of central and eastern England and Wales, but there should be some sunshine developing as it clears. Rain in western Scotland and the far west of Ireland. Mild this afternoon in SE.

Rather cloudy across north and east England with some patchy rain. Rain will ease and sunny spells will develop through the day. Sunnier spells further north and south. Reasonably mild. #weather #ukweather #ukfarming

Rain this Tuesday morning in eastern England, clearing into the North Sea by early afternoon with the cold front. Brighter, breezy for many but some showers over W Wales and W England. heavy, more persistent showers in Ireland and W Scotland at first. 80mph gusts NW Scotland.

A largely wet and progressively windy day to start off the new week. Rain will clear from the southwest with brighter conditions gradually developing. #weather #ukweather #ukfarming

Storm Boelo and the high gusty winds associated with it will gradually ease overnight. Expect a brief rest bite until tomorrow when more rain is expected and winds strengthen again. See forecast scene for first thing Monday morning. #weather #ukweather

We are still feeling the effects from Storm Boelo today with winds and gusts speeds severe gale and storm force in places overnight into this morning. Here are the recorded gust speeds in mph at 8am. #weather #ukweather #stormboelo

Saturday's highest wind gusts from Storm Boelo showing much of the west of the British Isles and Ireland taking the brunt of the storm.

Here comes Storm Boelo crossing the British Isles during Saturday. These are forecast hourly wind gusts and show 80mph and above which are enough to cause some damage. The strong winds ease a little on Sunday in the south but storms continue in Scotland.

Gust forecasts through Friday and the weekend show gusts of 80mph and above. Highest gusts associated with Storm Austen in southern areas on Friday, then more widespread storm force, potentially damaging winds on Saturday and early Sunday as Storm Boelo hits.

Many of us are starting on a dry and bright note though there are some showers about and rain gradually clearing across NE Scotland. Storm Austen approaches southwest England later when rain will move in and winds will strengthen. #weather #ukweather

A ridge building for today (Thursday) as low pressure clears Scotland. However, look to the SW, because here comes Storm Austen. Tracking E across S England tonight & Friday is brings an area of storm force winds, gusts in excess of 80mph to coasts, heavy rain and high seas.vvv

As much of the rain gradually clears the skies will become clearer and this will allow temperatures to fall. Thursday morning will start off chillier than of late. See predicted overnight minimum temps in chart. #weather #ukweather
