Welcome to my weather blog. I produce two weather forecasts per week, normally Monday and Thursday evening, and also put links to any other interesting weather information, and crazy weather videos that I discover. The forecast is based on my expectations for the Reading area, UK. If you want a forecast for your area, please e-mail me or comment below the blog post.

Friday 4 January 2013

For Sophie's Mum

(Written 31/12/2012).

Well, that is the last of the rain for a while (as I first suggested two weeks ago that it would be).

There is a small chance of a passing shower tonight, but it should be dry for most, down to 3'C in fresher air by the early hours.

And then high pressure builds from the south-west. If only it would do this in July. Never mind.

2013 will start with sunshine, 7'C for Tuesday, more cloud at nig...ht so only down to 2'C.

Wednesday will see a weak weather front cross during the day, so it will be cloudy, there may be bits of light rain but nothing much and it will introduce milder air - 7'C by day, 9'C by night.

Thursday to Saturday look mostly cloudy affairs, the sun might come out and if it does it could feel surprisingly pleasant, there could also be some light drizzle at times but most likely dry, around 10 to 12'C.

And the week after also looks mostly dry, perhaps a weak weather front Monday/Tuesday passing through, but nothing much.

At the moment the area of high pressure looks set to be situated such that it will give mostly cloudy but mild weather - it wouldn't take too much of a change in positioning to bring more of a clear but colder continental airflow.

In fact, as January progresses I expect, as I have said previously, that colder air is likely to head over the UK and the potential for snow should increase in the second half of January.

Very difficult to give details of if or when it will snow 3 days away let alone 3-4 weeks away but the potential is definitely there. As it is for February.

Happy New Year to all - please spread the word if you appreciate my forecasts.
