Scafell Pike (Cumbria) weather

Headline:

Cloudy tonight, and with patchy fog across the Pennines.

This Evening and Tonight:

Largely overcast this evening with occasional spots of light rain and drizzle. Rather gloomy under the thick sheet of cloud, with mist and hill fog lingering across the higher ground. Breezy over the Pennines, and colder than recent nights. Minimum temperature 10 °C.

Friday:

Another widely cloudy day, with outbreaks of light rain and drizzle lingering under thicker cloud, though brighter breaks developing at times through the afternoon. Winds becoming light and variable. Maximum temperature 13 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

High pressure dominates over the weekend and into next week, with widely cloudy conditions bringing patchy rain, though some brighter interludes as well. Feeling cooler, and a little breezier.

High pressure is likely to dominate the weather across many parts of the UK during this period. This will mean plenty of dry and settled weather for most, although it may be fairly cloudy at times. Where skies clear overnight some areas of fog and frost are likely to develop. Southern areas are expected to be mainly dry during this period, while any more unsettled conditions and periods of rain are more likely to affect areas further north, particularly the north and northwest of Scotland and Northern Ireland. Winds will likely be light in the south, but there could be some spells of strong winds across the north and west. Temperatures will probably be close to normal overall, although some cold nights are possible at times.

After a relatively settled start to November, around mid-month there will probably be a change toward more unsettled conditions for a time. This means an increased chance of periods of wet and windy weather for parts of the UK, perhaps more so in the south. However, there is low confidence whether unsettled, wetter weather or drier and more settled conditions will dominate by the end of the month. Temperatures will probably be close to average overall, although some colder interludes are possible.
