Banks of low cloud over the southern Highlands and up the west coast to Skye, some patchy coastal drizzle. Many higher Scottish tops poking out above the cloud sheet. The northern Highlands sunnier. England & Wales sees fairly extensive low cloud, with only highest tops possibly poking just above cloud. Wind fairly light.
Cloud/fog banks, some high tops just clear. Chilly.
South-southeast, 10-20mph at first. Shifting southwesterly in the afternoon and rising up to 25mph near dusk.
Few effects at first, winds becoming inconvenient towards dusk.
No precipitation expected
Low cloud early slowly rises, clearest north
Fog banks common across low terrain in the morning. North Pennines will be clearer. Clouds gradually rise towards high terrain through the day. Highest areas in the southern Yorkshire Dales may often be capped; high ground in the North Pennines may remain mostly clear.
80% (above fog on high tops), reducing to 50% south.
Widely sunny and excellent visibility if above fog, but cloud covering many slopes making visibility poor.
Near 0C, locally -2C, but some high tops may start slightly warmer (little variation with height).
-2C, some valleys locally cooler where skies are clear overnight. Rising to 4C, cooler in foggy south.

Gradually lowering pressure and falling temperature during the days ahead - mountain tops dropping sub-zero widely into midweek. Some areas of precipitation, most frequent in western Scotland early in the new week, falling as snow over higher terrain, although total amounts generally small. Blustery over some higher slopes with marked wind chill, but speeds relatively light for many into midweek. Winds are likely to strengthen toward next weekend as deeper areas of low pressure over the Atlantic approach. Late January is likely to see more frequent precipitation and periods of gales or possibly stormy winds at times; fluctuating temperatures and freeze-thaw cycles.
