Cushat Law (Northumberland) weather

Headline:

Turning unseasonably windy and cool by mid-week.

This Evening and Tonight:

A cloudy evening with a few isolated showers soon dying away. Some clear skies will develop for most overnight and it will turn chilly in places, before a band of cloud starts pushing in from the west round dawn. Minimum temperature 8 °C.

Monday:

Becoming increasingly cloudy with outbreaks of mostly light rain spreading to all. Perhaps drier and brighter in the afternoon but breezy with low cloud and drizzle over the Pennines. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Rather cloudy on Tuesday, with perhaps the odd shower. Breezy with rain on Wednesday, prolonged over western hills. Sunny spells and blustery showers on Thursday. Temperatures around or below normal.

This period is likely to see a continuation of the changeable conditions, with occasional bands of rain moving in from the west or northwest. There will be a good deal of dry, warm, and settled weather in between frontal systems, with the best conditions most likely in the south and east where winds will be lighter. In contrast, further north and west, it will generally be breezier, and any rain that does occur will be heaviest over the hills. Cloud cover will vary, with cloudier weather expected in the north and west, while clearer skies are likely in the south and east. Temperatures will be around or a little below average for the time of year, but on sunnier days with lighter winds, it will still feel warm.

On balance, it may be rather changeable at first, with periods of unsettled and cloudy, wet weather mixed with spells of dry and fine weather. The west is likely to see the wettest conditions, while the east will tend to be drier. By mid month there is a signal for more settled conditions to develop, so more in the way of dry weather, although still with a risk of some rain / showers at times. Temperatures close to average at first, but with a greater chance of warmer than average conditions later in the period.
