A bit of an upgrade! ...
UK Outlook for Friday 6 Dec 2013 to Sunday 15 Dec 2013:
Very cold, with a mixture of sunny spells and snow showers on Friday and through much of the weekend, leading to snow accumulations in places, especially northern Scotland and some exposed areas close to western and eastern coasts. Gale force winds in the north and east for a time, with blizzards on hills. Many southern and central inland areas largely sunny but with widespread night frost. Late in the weekend, but more especially into next week, cloudier, milder conditions are likely to filter slowly from the northwest, although many southeastern areas may remain cold with some clear spells. Thereafter, a northwest/southeast divide becomes established, with the more unsettled but often milder weather tending to be in the northwest, and the best of the drier weather towards the south and east.
Currently living at roughly 65m asl North of Cowbridge in the Vale of Glamorgan.
