Will the cold 'reload'? I can't see a return to any 'major' outbreak of intense arctic air the like of which we have recently experienced. It is likely that conditions and temperatures will 'seesaw' as the flow and pressure pattern alternates between source regions; there is the potential for a drier, colder, settled anticyclonic period through the latter stages of January into the beginning of February before the Atlantic once again takes the upper hand. *15/01/11 - 21/01/11* The flow across the UK will initially be from the west, so the recent 'mild' regime should continue to hold across most parts, however there are 'indications' that colder air to the north and north west may be returning southward? All areas should see a brisk westerly flow through the opening of the forecast period, this will push bands of rain and showers quickly across the UK, from mid-week some wintry showers look likely to be appearing across the higher parts of the north as colder air begins to dig in from the north or northwest. Pressure should begin to rise to the west as low pressure clears away to the east the flow swinging into a colder north to north-westerly direction, colder air pushing south and east across England and Wales later in the week. Wintry showers will be appearing over all high northern ground extending to lower levels across northern Britain later with overnight frost likely in most parts. *22/01/11 - 28/01/11* There is some uncertainty here although I would expect that pressure will be on the rise to the west, the probability is that quite a large anticyclone will be building and drifting slowly eastward across the UK, the pattern therefore likely to settle. With such a large anticyclone sitting over the UK, winds are expected to be light to variable and with only patchy cloud this will be the recipe for the formation of widespread mist, fog and sharp frosts. Little change is anticipated through the period, high pressure persisting over the UK. Mainly dry and settled across all areas, frost and fog lingering well into the morning in some prone spots where it'll remain cold and overcast, bright and sunny where this clears. *29/01/11 - 04/02/11* The cold and settled conditions look set to persist through the latter stages of January and into the beginning of February as high pressure remains the dominant feature across the UK. Western areas may become cloudier and less cold as a southerly drift establishes and there is the possibility of patchy rain and drizzle at times. The bulk of the UK will however stay settled and cold with a slack southeasterly flow drawing in rather chilly air from off the continent. Mainly dry for all of England and Wales, just the outside chance of some wintry showers across eastern coasts, frost and fog widespread overnight. *05/02/11 - 11/02/11* High pressure looks as though it'll be on the decline to the east, low pressure to the west pushing cloud and outbreaks of rain through western areas with a freshening breeze. Rain perhaps preceded by some wintriness will move eastward through all areas, milder conditions following on a brisk west to perhaps southwesterly breeze, there will be a good deal of cloud, any brighter conditions limited to southern and eastern areas. Low pressure will be on control of the remainder of the forecast period, generally mild with outbreaks of rain and drizzle will be the order of the day. *12/02/11 - 16/02/11* The unsettled weather looks likely to continue with low pressure most certainly in control of the pattern. Temperatures will be holding up well as there'll be a good deal of cloud and a brisk west to southwesterly flow from off the Atlantic, all areas seeing further outbreaks of rain at times.
