Davenport (Greater Manchester) weather

Headline:

Clear spells tonight. Bright to start on Saturday then cloudier.

This Evening and Tonight:

Mostly dry overnight with clear spells, though the odd shower may drift into the coast and push further inland. A chilly night, but a strengthening breeze later will keep it largely frost free. Minimum temperature 3 °C.

Saturday:

Bright to begin the weekend, though sunshine diminishing through the day as cloud builds. Winds strengthening with coastal gales developing by evening as rain arrives into Cumbria. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Increasingly wet and windy on Sunday with gales around coasts and hills, though southern counties perhaps remaining dry. Staying unsettled into next week with further rain and brisk winds expected.

A continuation of a similar pattern to that seen through early December is anticipated, especially at first, as frontal systems from the Atlantic spread into and across the UK, interspersed with some temporary drier interludes. These will bring occasional spells of rain, which may be heavy at times leading to the risk of some impacts given how wet it has been lately. In addition, there may also be potential for some periods of strong winds at times too. Whilst it will often be mild, later in the period there may be a slight downward trend in temperature, especially across northern parts of the UK where there may also be a slightly higher chance of some wintry hazards at times.

Changeable conditions are expected across the UK during this period. Low pressure systems will probably dominate, meaning showers or longer spells of rain, heavy at times, for much of the UK and some hill snow in the north. Periods of strong wind are also possible, especially around coasts. Some drier, more settled spells are possible but how long these last is very uncertain. Temperatures will likely be close to average or slightly above overall.
