A new phase of cold weather health warnings is scheduled to begin on Sunday, following a short respite from the subzero temperatures experienced over the weekend. Early Saturday saw temperatures plummet to as low as -7°C, but by Sunday morning most regions will experience milder conditions without any frost. Rain is expected to be widespread throughout the day, accompanied by hail and potential thunderstorms in parts of Wales and southern England.
Sunday will bring a notable increase in temperatures, with most areas seeing readings between 2°C and 6°C. However, some of the colder regions in central and eastern England might still experience temperatures close to freezing. The frigid conditions on Saturday included a low of -7.2°C recorded at South Newington in Oxfordshire, marking the coldest temperature recorded this autumn so far. As weather systems move eastward from the west, showers of rain will spread across a large part of the UK during the day.
The heaviest rain is anticipated initially in Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the south-west of England and Wales. By midday, rain showers will become more widespread, with thunderstorms possible in southern areas. The combination of heavy rain and strong winds could lead to leaf debris blocking drains, potentially causing localized flooding. Additionally, falling leaves and gusty winds might contribute to disruptions in affected areas.
The brief milder spell will be followed by a return of colder air. Starting at 21:00 GMT on Sunday, cold health alerts from the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) will be in effect for the north-east and north-west of England as well as Yorkshire and the Humber until 09:00 GMT on Thursday. As low pressure moves east on Monday, winds and rain will ease, but colder air from the north will bring back frost and fog. Monday afternoon temperatures will generally be between 5°C and 8°C, with wind chill effects especially near eastern coastal areas. The far southwest of England may see temperatures as high as 12°C before the arrival of another Atlantic weather front ushering in rain and gales, particularly along western coasts. Higher ground such as Snowdonia, the Pennines, and the Highlands might experience sleet and snow, while other areas will remain too warm for wintry precipitation. The remainder of the week is expected to alternate between milder and colder spells
