Met Office guidelines on Bonfire Night ‘frost’ as climate temps set to drop throughout UK

Bonfire Night is set to be good one for fireworks fans, the Met Office has claimed. Recent Bonfire Nights have seen a mix of torrential downpours or poor visibility, but it appears that this year will buck the trend according to new weather report.

The Met Office is showing that parts of the north will see temperatures hold at around 10c in the evening of November 5, with medium visibility predicted, while wind speeds will be low. And for the south, a similar theme takes hold, although slightly warned at around 13c. Scotland will be slightly less enjoyable as weather predictions for Glasgow are showing around 10c but 70% chance of rain – and gusts of around 17mph.

In Northern Ireland, Belfast is showing to be around 11c, with very low wind speeds of around 7mph and no rain, while ion Cardiff and other parts of Wales it’ll be around 12c with 13mph wind gusts.

But looking further ahead, it is set to be chilly across the country especially in the mornings.

The Met Office’s long term weather forecast starting on November 5 states: “High pressure is likely to dominate the weather across many parts of the UK during this period. This will mean plenty of dry and settled weather for most, although it may be fairly cloudy at times.

“Where skies clear overnight some areas of fog and frost are likely to develop. Southern areas are expected to be mainly dry during this period, while any more unsettled conditions and periods of rain are more likely to affect areas further north, particularly the north and northwest of Scotland and Northern Ireland.

“Winds will likely be light in the south, but there could be some spells of strong winds across the north and west. Temperatures will probably be close to normal overall, although some cold nights are possible at times.”

And looking ahead from November 15, the claim that it will start to become “unsettled” with an “increased chance of periods of wet and windy weather for parts of the UK, perhaps more so in the south”.
