Friday will begin dry and fine for many areas, with long spells of sunshine. However, the sunshine will become increasingly hazy as the day progresses. Eastern and southeastern England may see more cloud, with some showers likely during the morning, but these will fade into the afternoon, allowing

If you are interested in clouds or thunderstorms, UK climate or weather extremes, this series of factsheets clearly describes and illustrates the processes involved.
These factsheets clearly describe and illustrate the processes involved in global weather and climate, providing the most up-to-date answers and information. 1. Clouds The current classification of clouds is based upon those originated by Luke Howard (1772-1864), a London pharmacist and amateur
, particularly over coastal areas and hills where it brings low clouds, drizzle and local hill fog. Judging from the number of isobars the gradient wind does not seem to be an issue but the complexity of the frontal system over the Atlantic indicates that conditions will deteriorate quickly

. Breezy conditions will persist, and temperatures will hover near or slightly below seasonal averages. Monday night will see a shift to drier conditions for many, though showers in the north will drift southward, concentrating along North Sea coastal counties. Cloud cover will increase in the far
as snow above 700m, otherwise dry with variable cloud cover and some sunshine the best towards Strathdon. Strong winds at height. Chance of cloud-free hill tops above 800m: 70% Low cloud and visibility: Generally very good visibility with patchy cloud above 800 metres, this most extensive west
to the formation of cumulonimbus clouds, towering, dense clouds capable of producing heavy rain, hail, and lightning. Lightning is a massive electrical discharge caused by the separation of positive and negative charges within a storm cloud. As the storm develops, ice particles and hailstones collide
