The ’s long-range forecast between January 17 and 26 reads: “High pressure will lie close to the southeast of the UK initially, with generally settled conditions across many parts.

“Cloud amounts will be variable, with some frost and fog in the south and east, this slow to clear, but some rain in the far northwest.

“A weakening frontal system looks like it will edge east across the UK over the weekend, before high pressure briefly builds back in from the west in its wake.

“Low pressure then seems likely to increasingly influence the UK weather later in the period, with some rain and windier conditions affecting most if not all parts.

“Temperatures are likely to be generally a little above average, especially in the north, though more frost and fog patches are likely under clearer skies and lighter winds.”
