Continent drying, active southeast
Windy in the north
Issued: 0430hrs Thursday 28th November 2024
Duty forecaster: Dan Graves
High pressure pushes active weather east and north
Thursday
Thursday starts fine and warm across Mediterranean Europe. Clouds will
encroach on Portugal later in the day, Spain and the islands staying
dry and sunny. Variable clouds will bring light showers to Italy's west
coast and the Balkan coast. The Balkans will experience more consistent
rain in the evening, some potentially heavy or even snowy at high
inland areas.
A weakening low at the Germany/Poland border will push east driving a
band of rain southeastward across central Europe. This will drop snow
on the Swiss and Austrian Alps. The low will push through Poland
bringing rain and increased winds across the northern European plain
and eastward into Belarus, Lithuania, and western Ukraine. Passing of
the rain will bring brighter conditions and the possibility of
extensive sunshine, particularly in northern France, western Germany,
and the Low Countries.
Southern Scandinavia will experience similar conditions. Morning rain
in Denmark and southern Sweden will clear to the east, bringing
intermittent sun and cold winds. Stronger winds will blow on the
Norwegian coast producing rain in the south and snow in the north.
Friday
A mix of clouds and sun will dominate the Iberian peninsula with light
showers on Portugal's west coast. A fine sunny day will prevail on the
Beleric islands. A low will develop over the Adriatic sea driving
stronger winds and rains along the coasts and across most of southern
Italy, reaching Sardinia and Corsica. The rains will graze the Greek
west coast, though inland likely to receive only patchy cloud. The rain
will stretch northeast through Romania and migrate east bringing a
period of light to moderate rain. Light showers, some wintery, will
follow in the wake of this rain band, with sunny spells possible as
well.
Switzerland, Austria, northern Italy, and France will see a fine day
with plentiful sun as high pressure sits atop Germany. Dry with sunny
spells likely in Germany, western Poland, and the Baltics with a light
breeze. More widespread cloud likely to prevail to the east and north.
Winds increase across the UK and the North Sea into Scandinavia.
Norway's coastal mountains will see snowfall through much of the day,
while Sweden, Finland, and Denmark will see mostly cloudy skies with
occasional light showers.
