Storm Bert will move east through the Northern Isles today. Though weakening it will still bring gale to severe gale winds for many and showers to all, these frequent, occasionally heavy and prolonged across Argyll. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Tonight:

Strong northwest winds easing overnight. Showers, most frequent during the evening and in Argyll but dwindling overnight to leave most dry and bright come dawn. Minimum temperature 1 °C.

Tuesday:

A settled days weather ahead with most staying dry and bright. However the odd light shower may appear in Argyll and around the west coast. North to northwest breezes easing. Maximum temperature 9 °C.

Outlook for Wednesday to Friday:

Wednesday and Thursday dry and bright for most with some lingering fog patches in the Central Belt. Strong southerly winds developing for Friday, with rainband crosses from the west.

Mainly dry with some clear or sunny spells but rather cold towards the southeast at first as high pressure over the continent extends its influence here. Cloudier, windier and milder in the north and west with some outbreaks of rain. Early next week, it looks like the rain in the west will edge further east, bringing a short spell of rain to the east. High pressure may then re-assert itself close to or over the UK through early December. The largely dry, settled theme may be punctuated by brief unsettled spells though with areas of low pressure possibly crossing the UK, bringing some spells of wind and rain. Temperatures generally near average, but some overnight frost is likely, and rather cold by day where any fog persists.

The start of this period looks like being largely settled, with high pressure close to if not over the UK. However, as we move towards mid-December, there are signs that it will become less settled with west or northwesterly types preferred, These will bring some wetter and windier interludes with a risk of some snow, especially for hills in the north. These conditions may prevail into late December, although drier, more settled spells may also affect the UK at times, these probably more likely towards the south. Temperatures generally close to average through the period.
