PS No cheating android users 😉 . #weather #loveukweather #winter #igdaily #pictureoftheday #photographyIt's getting colder next week ☝️ . Next week starts generally settled, especially so in the west, whilst scattered showers are likely in the east where they could be wintry at times. . From mid week onwards the weather pattern becomes slow moving, with easterly winds developing and bringing showers to many parts, these possibly wintry away from coastal areas. Overnight frosts and patchy freezing fog are also likely at times. Any wet and windy weather is likely to be confined to the west and northwest, although rain may affect the south at times, bringing with it a risk of hill snow. Temperatures generally rather cold or cold, perhaps milder at times in the west, as well as in any brief unsettled spells. .
