Christmas Day
On Christmas Day a further weather system moves in from the southwest, falling as mostly rain over southern and central England, Wales and Northern Ireland and eventually into the very far southwest of Scotland. Snow expected over the highest ground. Drier elsewhere with some developing sunny spells, although some sleet and snow showers could affect the hills in northern England and Scotland. A windy day is expected and a cool day for many in the north and east with highs here at 3 to 6C though in the south and west highs will be at 8 to 12C.

Christmas Day Night
Overnight, the band of rain will gradually push northeastwards and move into central and northern England before onwards into southern and western regions of Scotland later. Snow falling over higher ground with a wintry mix at times towards lower levels. Lows at -1 to 2 in the north, between 3 and 7C further south.
 

Boxing Day
Rain and hill snow continues across Northern England, southern and western parts of Scotland pushing northwards later on Boxing Day, giving some accumulations to higher ground and possibly to lower levels too. Light rain or drizzle for much of the day across central England and Wales. Largely dry elsewhere. Highs at 4 to 7C through Scotland and northern England, 8 to 11C elsewhere.

Monday
A low pressure system looks likely to remain just to the south of England on Monday and will bring cloud and possibly some spells of rain to southern counties. Rain, sleet and snow showers at times through northern and central Scotland. Drier elsewhere with some sunny spells developing across Northern Ireland and parts of Wales. Highs at 5 to 10C.
