Cool and bright today. A few showers, mainly affecting Shetland, will gradually die out. Light SW to W’ly winds. Dry tonight with clear spells, light winds and a widespread frost. Icy stretches and perhaps a few mist or fog patches over low-lying ground.
Dry and bright on Saturday, but clouding over later as S to SE’ly winds freshen.
Mainly dry and bright on Sunday. Cloudy with outbreaks of rain and hill snow on Monday. Mainly dry and bright on Tuesday. S to SE’ly winds increasing strong to gale-force for a time.
With a more or less even split between cold winds off the Continent or less cold ones from the Atlantic, the Further Outlook remains very uncertain. The common theme is that it is likely to be windy over northern Scotland.
