UK weather: Met Office reveals Halloween weekend weather forecast as pockets of drizzle coming – is your area clear?
THE Met Office have revealed their Halloween weekend weather forecast as Brits look to continue celebrations.
Most of the UK was shrouded in grey clouds and dull weather on the spookiest week of the year.
But the conditions largely stayed mild and dry despite some gloomy looking skies and it did not stop people embracing Halloween.
The Met Office have said that Brits should expect more “cloudy and grey days ahead” as the weekend kicks off.
Meteorologist Honor Criswick said: “Looking at the beginning of Saturday it will be a fairly grey picture with lots of grey skies around.
“It will be particularly damp too in parts of Scotland and all down Eastern and Southeastern coasts of England.”
But despite the grey weather, conditions will stay fairly dry and mild in many areas on Saturday, said forecasters.
Temperatures could be as high as 15-16C in the South where it will be average elsewhere, according to the Met Office.
Unfortunately, Saturday night is likely to be a lot colder than tonight.
The weather service added that Brits should see “lots of dry weather around” and there may even be clear spells breaking through in regions on Sunday.
Criswick added: “It will be a little bit brighter on Sunday but at the same time temperatures will be a lot milder than Saturday.”
However, areas with clearer skies are also at risk of seeing mist and fog patches.
Forecasters say tonight’s weather will be mostly cloudy but temperatures will be mild.
The Met Office said Brits should expect patches of fog and some light rain or drizzle through the evening and overnight.
Those in northern Scotland may see a local frost developing in the area.
On Saturday, the Met Office said that early fog should clear to leave another rather cloudy day in most areas with the odd pocket of drizzle.
It should feel mild in any brighter breaks with the conditions particularly breezy in the northwest.
