Met Office - Longer Range Forecast, for the entire UK ©Met Office.:
................Monday 25 Nov - Wednesday 4 Dec
An unsettled start, with strong winds and some showers for many parts, these
most frequent in the north. Temperatures easing back towards average for most
places, but still mild in the southeast. The strong winds will make it feel
rather cold though. It then looks like turning colder for all parts, with a
return of wintry showers for a time, especially in the north. Conditions then
look like settling down as high pressure briefly builds across the country, this
bringing a risk of some stubborn fog patches as winds ease. It may turn
unsettled and milder again later next week. Into December, high pressure may
re-assert itself, with temperatures generally close to average, but some
overnight frost is likely, and rather cold by day where any fog persists.
Thursday 5 Dec - Thursday 19 Dec
The start of this period looks like being largely settled, with high pressure
close to if not over the UK. However. there is also a chance of more changeable
weather patterns, which would see Atlantic weather systems periodically move
across the country. These will bring some wetter and windier interludes with a
risk of some snow, especially for hills in the north. These conditions look more
likely to dominate towards the middle of December. Temperatures generally close
to average through the period..................................
