Arabic version: طقس عطلة نهاية الأسبوع في المملكة المتحدة: توقعات بالضباب وأشعة الشمس

Dry weather will hold on across most parts of the UK this weekend. According to BBC News, sunny spells will continue in many areas but mist and fog patches will mean murky mornings for some.

A band of cloud that will sit across north-west Scotland on Saturday will move southwards to affect other areas on Sunday, perhaps delivering a few spots of rain. On Friday, a maximum temperature of 20C (68F) was recorded at Fyvie Castle, Aberdeenshire – Scotland’s warmest day of the year so far – but temperatures will drop a little over the weekend.

On both Saturday and Sunday mornings, some of us will be greeted by mist and fog, which could significantly reduce visibility on the roads. Fog forms when the air temperature drops overnight, causing excess moisture to condense into liquid water droplets.

Despite the fog, most places will see sunny periods on Saturday – with the best of the blue skies likely to be found across England and Wales. Northern Ireland, southern and central parts of Scotland should also have some decent spells of sunshine, although it may feel quite chilly near some eastern coasts. Saturday night will be another chilly one with a touch of frost in places.

On Sunday, once morning mist and fog has cleared, sunny spells will return, but cloud and patchy rain will move a little further southwards across Scotland and Northern Ireland, getting into England and Wales during the afternoon. Looking ahead, next week is expected to give us a reminder that we are still in early spring as high pressure is expected to decline, bringing colder temperatures and potential wintry showers in northern regions.
